$800 Xpipe


Well you all keep refering to it. So I thought id atleast take a few pics of it!
By the way, its not that I couldnt put it in myself. Its that I didnt want to put it in. I really didnt feel like putting in the effort to do the xpipe because of how much of a hassle iv heard it is.











Now just a few pics of my stang with the hood.

I still say go black on the hood, the spoiler, the windows, the rear light bezels and add a black chin spoiler and that would be an awesome looking ride. Throw on some dd black bullitts too.

That is definitely not $800 work...I payed $200 for a exhaust custom from the headers back and it was much cleaner than that

A shop called HP Racing. Its a horrible shop that knows nothing about cars.

They pretty much did half the job and then got my stuck in a position where unless they did the rest of it what they already did was useless.

To them "Fabricate me an xpipe" means cut the H out and put an X in.
Also "Install these hi-flow cats" means cut out 1 old set of cats and put 2 highflow ones in.

When I came back asking why my car was queiter and still had 6 cats. They said it was "hard" to remove the other 4. So they charged me the 300 extra to do it.

If the total had come to 500 like it was supposed to be i would of been fine. Seeing that I was going to buy a magnaflow catted X anyway.

Also I have been thinking of blacking out my car (rims tint chin spoiler). Just low on the funding.

Theres only 2 around here.

ELD is a shop only 20 minutes from me. But they charge wwwwaaayyyy to much. Tuning is 250 an hour.

JPC is also fairly expensive. I do get club discounts but its not alot.

The only shop I trust is my tuneing shop because they have been really good to me. Springfeild Motorsports has helped me out alot. Im going down friday to get my cars tune fixed. There doing it for "Free". The only issue with them is there 2 hours away down in VA.

instead of black wheels maybe you should check out the anthracite (gunmetal) ones, i think they would look good too, and then some lowering springs

I cant do springs. My driveway is to brutal for it.

Id like black because my goal from the start was purple and black. So black rims and black tint are my dream. Im just trying to be ready for the show season.

With his color scheme I wouldn't. Chrome lips look great on murdered cars but with the black/purple I would just go with the full black wheels.
