Default GS450h with Tanabe Medalion Exhaust

So guys, here I am a couple of Km's further with my GS450h 2008. After 2.5 years driving that beauty every day I'm still in love with her.

It was time for some upgrade. Reason, the oem exhaust had 2 holes, one on each silencer. Very strange, maybe the last owner didn't drive the car long enough to warm up the exhaust sufficiently. So I went to the Stealer and asked for the price of a new one (just the section from the middle silencer to the end).....€3000,- WTF!!!!
After some web research I followed the steps of a member here and bought the Tanabe Medalion Exhaust T70112 and placed it on the car. €1150,-
I can say that it looks very nice on the car. The sound is deeper compared to the oem (you hear almost nothing) but silence enough until you accelerate, then you notice that there is more than a standard exhaust laying beneath. I am very happy with it except for the holes at the end. They are a little to big in my opinion. It's almost like you have half a GT-R exhaust on each side. But I can live with it.

Installation was plug and play. Very easy. 30 minutes on a bridge!!
