APR 2.5" exhaust

I originally purchased the turn-down tip exhaust to keep the car stealthy looking. Those tips, however caused sound to bounce off the ground and back into the cabin, so I later had straight tips made out of stainless.  I also purchased the newer '02+ rear valence with the cutout for the tips.  I also replaced the small bullet resonator with the Hushpower2 - this mellowed out the exhaust note as well.  It's still an aggressive sound, but now it's very smooth.  After these photos, I painted the rear facing section of the exhaust can with BBQ paint so it's not as flashy.  It now still retains the stealthy appearance and is easily mistaken for stock.
