So I got my Tim's custom tips installed and attached to the Borla exhaust...I really am happy and continue to rave about the quality of the work. The installers were amazed at the quality as am I. I orignally had some concern about how long I had Tim make them...My concerns are over!!
I installed 15mm spacers to the OEM rears...Here is a pic. I have concluded that I need a 10mm since I JUST touch the lip of the wheel well (If I hit a large bump). Looks wise, I think it is bad a--, and the ride is handling doesn't apper to be affected. To the contrary, it feels more grounded for lack of a better term...
Also attached a picture of the new-to-me Headers and SS CATS (Thanks Aaron) which will be installed Weds.
A little porn for the weekend. Enjoy and be safe.

What did the Borla tips look like? Just curious as they look like any other aftermarket tips...
It'll have a nice sound once the headers and cats are installed!

The Borlas were rolled edge and way to short IMHO. I love the concept of Tim's work, Stock appearance / stagger, but Big Old 3" Polished Stainless construction...
