The wheel issue has been worked out, they should be here end of the month!

i have the M2 exhaust, its pretty much the same thing as the top speed exhaust. I bought it to mess around with but will be switching to JIC soon. Its pretty deep and quiet at the same time. When you get on it, the engine over powers the exhaust IMO.
I actually love the way my exhaust sounds not overpowering at all and sounds sporty but not overly aggressive.

On the front I had them shaved as well and clipped the driverside fender, I had the wheel cocked and was pulling off a grass hill and hit a little hole so when the suspension compressed it caught and pulled the fender in. I had this repaired and when they fixed it they took the little piece of metal that was left over from shaving and bent it up and over, and hammered it flat then resprayed the whole fender. I got rear Megan camber arms.

Can't wait to see the lip installed and painted! I've been looking for one that will go with the stock body lines (sides and rear). This lip fills in the gap Lexus left out in my opinion.

sounds nice and smooth mine actually sounds more aggressive than that but its kinda hard to tell with out any back pressure, they look good as well. I am gong to try to refrain from posting pics of my car until it is done, but I must say she is definitely coming along the front is put back together just needs to be buffed out and then off to the next shop she goes! wheels should be here by the end of the month and then I ll post pics.
