you should deffinatly consider getting an o/r hpipe they are cheap and easy to install and it seriously wakes the car up sound wise. my dad says he can hear me coming from when i turn on pikersville road which is about 2 miles from my house. most of the time my mom or dad even open the garage for me as i pull into the driveway cuz they know im there haha.

Light bars are cake to install... With no expierence it will take you at most and hour ( if you are taking your time and being cautious ). The only thing that is kind of risky is cutting the hole int the plastic panel that the bar goes throuh. But the kit should come with a paper template that will show you exactly where to cut ( you going to need like a 3 in hole saw drill bit ). Other than that its just simple bolting on the brackets putting the panels back on, sliding the bar into the hoels and tighting the bar down with a long allen wrench. No reason to pay someone to do this IMO...

It didn't take me long on my 00, but its tedious trying to line up the shit templates you get. Just take your time doing it and make sure everything is as close to perfect as you can get it. Me and a friend did it in about 2 hours with a good amount of beer drinking/shooting the shit. Good luck man, and if you get stuck, let me know.

Like I said, be cautious with the templates. Make sure you line them up good, and even on both sides. It's like...printed out on normal 8.5x11" printer paper. That's the part that kinda screwed me. I ended up having to have my buddies son hang from it to get the bottom flush with the trim to bolt it in.



Also, I have a speedster cover I'll sell ya if you want.
