tint it. and post pics. i'm about to tint mine as well. its a 97. black. i'd like to see what its going to look like. i don't mind the rims, but its not really my thing, i've always been in love with wire wheels so i might be going with some daytons for my car. either way, looks nice.

custom cat back made by me at my job at an exhaust shop. she netted a dynoed gain of 11 hp with my exhaust.
pair of free flowing johns performance exhaust mufflers (full boar) 3 inch pipeing to a 2.5 inch y cat. total cost for me was 180 bucks, and 80 of that was for the 2 new chrome z/28 camaro rectangle tips on the back.

niiice! how much would that cost me if i were to take it somewhere to get it done...considering i dont work at a exhaust shop? haha and what about magnaflow or flowmaster? do you know what kind of sound either of them have on a N*?

my buddy put a set of flowmaster on his 97 ETC and mine blows his away and his mufflers cost more lol, i get him every time at the strip too. If you were to have it done prob around 3-4 hundred but its about the best hp and torque mod you can do to the N*

i'm doing 5% on the back five windows for now. its illegal to have any tint on the fronts and my buddy just got a ticket two days ago for having his fronts barely tinted at all. cost him 110$ for the ticket. so i'm kind of sketching. if i get a good price to tint the fronts i might end up doing it, but for now i'm just doign the back.

firstly,
it is a 1997 STS...and thanks for the comment! (95ltc)
secondly,
luckly around here you can do 35% on the driver and passenger sides and no limit on the back, and normally around here they dont write tickets they de-tint your car with a razor blade haha..so i think by next week sometime i will get 20 to 25% all around..pics soon hopefully.... but be careful when backing up at night with 5% it can be a bitch haha but it looks super clean i loove 5%...(97blacksts)
thirdly,
i think that the way you did it sounds great and maybe within a month or so i can have it haha $300 kills my pocket book and paycheck especially when i am a poor college student haha....but props for the sound! (CadillacETC1997)
ps sorry for the long post but its better than 3 seperate from me haha

i put the exhaust on they are single chamber flowmasters not quite as loud or mean as yours but its more of a mellow tone and i like it, when u put new exhaust on did it throw your service engine soon light? cuz mine came on but im not sure if something like that would cause it...
