JP.....It is not. 
Lighting differences.........homie.
Dad....No hurry, I'm trying to figure out if I want to just "slap" those mufflers on or if I want to do a whole catback setup.
Thanks D, hows yours coming?
What do you guys think about this.
I have a set of used LMS mufflers. (still good shape), should I do a full catback/xpipe setup, or just tie them into the stock pipe? Cost is an issue, but if it's going to sound like ass, I'll gladly spend the extra money.

I think it would sound just fine to slap them on the stock exhaust.

Thanks Brandon.
I'm gonna try that way, if it does'nt sound........enough, I'll put a whole system on it.
Bad news as well.
I went through the car wash today and sprayed my favorite Eagle One chrome cleaner on the wheels. The wheels IMMEDIATELY started peeling and flaking off before I had time to get the hose pointed at them. I have NO idea what that was all about but needless to say, I'm in the market for new wheels.
Updates on that later.
I'm thinking about sending a nasty-gram to EagleOne's consumer complaint line and see what happens.

Sorry about your wheels, stuff always happens to me when the checking account is dry.
Anyway to fix them?

Nothing financially feasible. (re-finishing, ETC)
It's ok though, really. This gives me a reason to start eyeballing Foose and Coddington's.

any info on the "PBR twin piston with 13" rear discs"?
is that like cobra fronts on the rear? cuz those are twin piston PBRs.
or steeda has a 13 inch rear brake kit using the mustang calipers? so does baer.

Yes.... I'm gonna take my current PBRs I have on the front and swap them to the rear. (Custom brackets obviously.)
I'm also doing a line lock for the front brakes to "compensate" for no parking brake. He he.

rear brake bias wont be a problem? and the master cylinder has enough fluid for that?
seems like overkill unless its a bling thing.

Bigger brakes are never bling.
If bias is a problem ill buy a proportioning valve.... if lack of fluid is a problem ill figure out a solution to that as well. Ill even remove the ABS system if it gives me trouble.
The only thing I am genuinely worried about is tearing up my brand new Ford strut rod bushings with the increased braking power.

On page 3 he talks about the chrome falling off his wheels. The fr500s I assume.
