Yea something like that. And I feel they flow pretty well with my z. I dont like larger size rims they rob HP.

I love the sound the Borla makes. Very choice.

And hey, thank you for your service to our country. You do us all proud.

Thank you very much. I installed it myself and man was it worth it! My old exhaust had holes in it because the person who owned this z before me bottomed out a few too many times. But now I can tell the difference in the sound and performance. Im extremely happy with the way it turned out. Now on to the headlight upgrade!

The wheels look small due to the polished/chrome lip extending up and into
the center.If that portion was painted black,the wheels would look much better and the car lower.
Look like wheels put on for track use.

I think it looks awesome, I love my borla also sounds gnarly above 5k. Do the rear wiper eliminator and it would look way clean

Yea I most certainly agree it sounds amazing above 5k. And do you happen to have a link to the DIY for the rear wiper eliminator? And thanks for the compliment.

Welcome home brother and happy modding. I'm currently getting ready for trip number 4 across the pond. This one is for the engine build.
