Good deal, I had a good experience.
At the end if the day, for $220 you can't really go wrong...

As much as some people hate to say it, this exhaust looks like it is meant to be on our car. I still kind of want the f-sport exhaust but the price for an axel-back is unreasonable and the tips still stick out a little too much for my taste.

I am set on buying this exhaust. It looks like its the best bang for the buck looks/sound wise. Now heres my question, on m2performance.net the piping and tip size is different on ebay. The price is 300 + shipping on their website, wile on ebay its 315-330 shipped. Has anyone purchased directly from m2performance.net, was the fitment still an issue and is it 2.75 piping and 4.5inch tips???????? I am leaning more toward ordering from m2performance.

EDIT: I contacted an ebay seller that has the listing with 2.5 and 4.0, they are saying they get it directly from m2, they will contact m2 to find out if the sizes what they are listing are correct and suppose to give me a call back. But i think i will call m2 also, and have them send me a picture of the exhaust tip measured out just to have the final measurement unless someone here has purchased the exhaust from m2 performance.net and can verify if it is the correct pipe size listing.

UPDATE: EBAY LISTINGS WILL BE CHANGING, the EBAY kits should be 2.75 and 4.5 inches. They used to be 2.5 and 4.0, m2 changed thier design (how long ago i do not know)

i called about this listing. http://www.ebay.com/itm/2006-2010-Le...ht_2174wt_1504

I recently bought this exhaust and it sounds great.

I contacted M2 performance and they told me that one of the few resellers they actually deal with legitimately is always-bargains.

Here is their link - http://stores.ebay.com/always-bargai...&_sid=33613543

Also, if your in the LA area, I contacted the seller and you can pick it up to save on shipping.

BTW, I noticed that the tips on this get dirty real easily. Anyone know why and/or how to fix that?

A bit of Mothers Mag & Aluminium polish will clear them up and help them stay cleaner longer!

Common issue - any good exhaust shop should be able to adjust the exhaust to fit perfectly.

Might have to do some adjusting to the exhaust flanges.
