Thats great to hear. Hope everyone else goes well with the installation. Alessondro said like 4 more would be shipping out tommorow and after that he only had to make like 2 more. So good luck and thanks.

I got mine yesterday as well and installed it last night. The tips ended up pushing against the rear bumper pretty hard, so I went out tonight and adjusted it enough so they aren't touching any more. The fitment was great... and the sound. Well, the sound wasn't quite what I expected. I had ordered the quiet system, but I am 99.999% sure I got the loud mufflers. You know what though, I really like it, so I'm not gonna complain. I may need to get a resonator though because it is a little bit intrusive. The sound really is awesome though.
..and now we've got Cuervo posting pictures of the y-pipe all over the place just taunting us to spend more money. I'm contemplating what to do about that.
Thanks again Cuervo!

I think exhaust tone is definitely something that everyone will "agree to disagree on"....i really like the tone of the "loud' system though....froze my a** off driving around last night with the windows down.

Just crank up your heater and fantasize about a warm summers night with the windows down and the sunroof open with your best girl/guy/friend/lover in the passenger seat and nowhere in particular to go.
P.S. I threw in the "guy" part for Amanda and the other female members.

Two months and still waiting. This is my second experience with a group buy. ONCE THIS IS RESOLVED, I'll have to think long and hard before I get involved in another one. This really bites.
