CME install almost done!!

**9t8z28** · 10-04-2007, 07:41 AM

I finally got my CME valence and tips on. It was a PITA to get the Inven rear valence on but I heated the heck outta it and got it to form to my bumper. I am very happy with the fit. All that is left is to spray the red!

The CME tips were suprisingly easy to install. I installed our new Proto-type Pypes Race Pro muffler along with a new mid-pipe. It sounds pretty badass, and it is unlike anything else that I have ever heard!

Valence install--Not the best pics, but you get the idea

CME tips and Pypes Race Pro proto-type cat-back install

Its quiet at idle with a nice little rumble, but under moderate to hard exceleration, it has a very powerful sound! Sounds clips will be up soon!!!!

sick! it would almost look just as good if you left it black, kind of complements your berger panel.

Yeah, I know, it does look good black. I think I am gonna start a poll to see what everyone thinks wether I should paint it flat black, gloss black or red.

Go with the red...the pics make it look like they complement each other but color matched to the car makes the rear look like one piece with the exhaust cut out...black it would look like you never got around to finishing it...just my .2cents

Paint it red. It looks incomplete black. You should have painted it before you put it on. Looks good.

I am painting it red. It was just a thought although it does look good black.

It was not a good idea to paint it before I put it on. The Inven CME valence is alot thicker than the SLP CME valence. It was shipped to me folded in half. I had to install it and heat it to get it to go back to shape. If I would have painted it then installed it, the paint would have cracked all over FOR SURE!

**greatwhiteZ28** · 10-04-2007, 06:34 PM

LMK what yas think! Honest opinions are welcome!

**Joe00SS** · 10-24-2007, 06:58 AM

I like it! That thing screams! Makes me want an M6...

**camarojunky74** · 10-24-2007, 07:17 AM

to be honest if i had my eyes closed and heard you drive by i would think it was a mustang, acutallly a mach 1, it sounds a lot different than any other exhaust . give me a day or so ill let your no if i like or dislike

**Joe00SS** · 10-24-2007, 07:31 AM

I like the Mustang sound or just a healthy sounding V8 really...most Stangs sound good but are slow...I get the kids around here all the time that think just b/c they have an exhaust they're fast...haha...
