[Andrizzle]

well it was originally wasnt on there at all but 2 tickets later, its zip tied on , after i lower it im going to actually get a holder for it though, and it actually moves around lol so its not always in that spot

how much was it to do your exhaust

i don't remember the exact amount but it about 375 with parts and labor

this is the X pipe i used and the the muffler shop had the straight pipe and tips

i've never really known, but whats so big about the x pipe, does the car have one already and your just putting a stainless one on or what?

you have factory resonators but no x-pipes. x-pipes and h-pipes are suppose to help you with torque and hp, but i never remember which is for which, lol.

An H is supposed to be good for torque and the X is for hp and top end bc it's supposed to flow better

I'm going take my eyebrows off this weekend. I do not like the way they fit. Its not very flush and they are difficult to apply on the outer edges with the curvature of the headlights.

yea they didnt fit too great, the out edge wouldnt stick to the headlight, but i think they look nice

does the exhaust sound like its cracking or anything like that?

I got some additional 3M emblem adhesive but it was still a pain to get them to stick down. For a custom product for the LS they don't fit nearly as well as the BMW counterpart eyebrows that crowd gets.

It's ok though, I'm just going to buy some angel eyes instead and be much happier

If i get on it before it's warmed up it does cackle a little but not once it's warmed up.

what i did was mask off where i didn't want any silicone and i simply used some clear silicone to do the corners. i learnt after my 1st set of eyebrows went flying in the freeway, lol.

yea im working on the angel eyes after lowering it and getting a license plate holder, thinking about just sending it to Alax07 to install for me

i just dont want it to sound like my brothers truck lol, its sounds so horrible it crackles like every time he steps on the gas

 

[PetesSweets86]

Eyebrows on these cars make em look asian with their squinty eyes

lol yeah i think i know the sound you're referring to but no mine doesn't sound like that. at least i don't think so. when we get it back together i'll take some videos for you. (if you haven't done yours by then)

 

[Long_Island_LS]

idk if i would put them on my LS, but the eyebrows look surprisingly good on your black LS ... those combined with the cleared corners and running lights make it look like everything is coming together...however i must agree with ANDRIZZLE...

BTW your plate being off-center would drive me nuts!

...who still uses front plates anyway?? haha

 

[SlickLS]

You are correct. It's called exhaust scavaging and a LS has a H pipe from the factory. That's why most change to a X pipe. I know I am about to make the switch. 4V motors sound awesome with a X pipe. Bassani is the X pipe I am going with.

 

[bearsfan39]

i only have the plate on because the town i work in, the cops are @ssholes and pull you over for anything
