I was originally planning on doing his way at first but with the letting for my airbag I had to change it

See, there's opinions for you....to echo cman, kracks looks good but to me it looks better with the pieces under painted....something about the shape of them, looks wrong with all that contrast

I had it done like that black before I peeled the paint....didn't like those pieces unpainted....thought I might but I didn't

Well you didn't HAVE to but to keep the lettering without having to redo the letters you would've. Or you could've just gone without the lettering.

Had the 22in magnaflow removed and replaced it for the 14" magnaflow muffler. Sold the long one to a buddy who wanted a quiet truck. Came to the realization I could barely tell I had a magnaflow unless it was WOT. didn't cost me a dime to do this either.

Sound clip? You got all original cats still? And when you say that about not being able to tell, does that mean you couldn't hear it or it sounded straight piped?

Couldn't hear it. You heard a slight Drone under acceleration. Very slight. Even when you'd Rev it up in neutral the engine noise would over power the exhaust. I can get a sound clip of the new one tomorrow. And I have all the stock cats. Don't plan on removing the rears unless someone convinces me they are extremely restrictive. Even then I don't think I would want it that loud. I would properly go with magnaflow hi flows.

When the time comes I'm replacing all 4 of mine with two high flow cats.
