welcome to the site! car looks 1000 times better with out that wing and black. nice progress keep us updated.

 

[1bad95tsi]

Actually there are side exhaust on both sides

 

[1bad95tsi]

I wouldnt have side exhaust because of bend - usually people want them straight out the back or slightly angled for performance- if the exhaust has to turn to go out the sides its not as free flowing - on both sides? well i guess if you like it but dualls are for trucks and american muscle cars not dsms but i guess to each his own - just curious why the interior is gutted out ???

Yeah, dualls are for muscles but, i have a 3" pipe for about 3 monts, no good, here in mexico there are a lot of bumps.
And i'm thinking seriously to cut the pipe right before the rear wheels, is better for performance.
about the interiors, i removed for improved cornering, with stock interiors the front was too heavy to my liking, i take apart the complete a/c, heather, emissions, and take the battery to the trunk.

Thanks for the comments

Hey nice ride, I like the rims and the side exit is pretty nice. What did you do with the corner lights in the front? Is that a plate or "delete" type deal? Does the single wiper mod ever get in your way while driving?

MM about the corner lights,. well... is a hand molded aluminum mesh, the original harness is behind the mesh with a yellow bulbs.
In my first try i have engine heat problems, so solve a little, i remove some plates from the front of the radiator and let get in some fresh air from the corners. and cut the front bumper (only plastic). But anyway the real problem was all the corroded water lines.
The wiper "mod" .... get a little in the passenger visibility only.

thanks for the comments!!
