Spot the Difference..

[TopCat]

Had a busy old weekend with the car.

Before...



After...

[Masa]

the new exhaust system seems nice

how much did it cost you ?

[mcgon1979]

looks SAVAGE!!! any chance of a soundclip(youtube) when you get a chance. would love to hear it. Is it a full cat back system or what?

[Myfeckin FTO]

Very nice indeed - blueflame Quad I presume?

Debadged as well I see - need to get some how soapy water on there for the residue - if that doesn't work then try some petrol (wash it off after).

Very Very nice TopCat

v.nice! nice debadging too

[Kace]

v.nice! nice debadging too

Nearly nice - once you get the excess glue off the boot lid of course. Petrol or Mr Sheen will get this off for you.

Wow, thanks guys.
Yup, full cat-back Blueflame quads, and thanks for all the advice leading me to that, very happy with it. (My back section actually isn't that bad (exhaust I mean, to pre-empt any comments ), so might put it in the for sale section if there's any interest?) And there is a good balance with the sound, quiet for most crusing, but a lovely burble when you give her some. Will look into getting a clip on youtube if I can get my hands on a camera.
Must say I was terrified cutting out the section of the bumper on the left, but took my time, and you’d do well to notice the difference.
Yup, a bit if de-badging too, took the red insert out of the FTO part (what’s the general opinion on this?), and that was the early stages of taking the Mitsu badge off when I took the photo, cleaned up the residue after. I’m doing a bit of interior work too, but you’ll have to wait and see on that one, a few more weekends work required!

....... took the red insert out of the FTO part (what’s the general opinion on this?), .........:

I'd have left it in. Its an aftermarket sticker thats meant to enhance the FTO indent and I think it looks well.

[Mickthepieman]

I would have left it in

Where could I get one in Silver or Red

I'll sell you a set of red ones cheap, one million dollars.... per letter, plus P & P!

Crap, I thought it looked better without, but now I'm not too sure. I agree its an "aftermarket sticker thats meant to enhance", but as we know, not all aftermarket products do enhance.

Seriously though Mick, if I make up my mind to leave them off, they're in perfect nick (bar maybe a quick clean) and you have the first call on them, and would be welcome to them free. If not, I'm not sure where you buy them to be honest.

I can't see the pics here at work, but I have yet to see one of those recess stickers I thought looked well, so I reckon its better without.

[Muad_dib77]

I have to say I much prefer it without the stickers and I really like that blueflame quad.. very nice job.

wroum!

[Sebastian]

i have to say it looks amazing with the quads.
debadged is the way to be these days

[Dragonheart]

Excellent job TC. Quads are deadly.

Very nice job on the cutting man. Looks stunning with/without the sticker, but I think without edges it for me. Focuses attention on other things

[5803emma]

why is debadging a good thing?

[CJ]

why is debadging a good thing?

Many would say it llooks less complicated and makes for cleaner lines - its subjective really.

It also leads to "WTF type of car was that?!" moments

[optical illusion]

Can't say I'm a fan of debadging tbh, especially the front one. Now, in saying that, I didn't really like the raised one you had, which I don't think is standard, but I like the original decal type one. Think you can get those on ebay...

Loving the exhaust, fair play, sorry I couldn't leave work the other day to lust at it*

*hope your gf didn't complain of you smelling like lizard...

[miss-enzo]

very nice!!! love the quad!

I think it looks better debadged!
