Black plates with white writing look good When I ordered mine I had the option of a 2nd hand demo, 18000kms, red, manual, 6/4 brembo's for 56k plus on roads.. just wasn't exactly what I wanted. You have got a bargain there

I went t=for the 4" dump off the turbo, hi-flow cat and twin magnaflow mufflers into the standard tip though. I don't want the boys in blue to pull up behind me and see two big 3" pipes sticking out the back! I've seen the twin pipes setup, and in my humble opinion, doesn't go with the design of the rear end. All you're doing with that setup is letting everyone know you have modded your exhaust!But that's just my opinion!
