Good luck getting that "special request chit" approved. I had to convince my XO that if/when I sold the OEM rims, it'd be just a few bucks extra...

If your talking about for exhaust, I have a good hook up for exhaust and he does have a mandrel bender machine.

I will be at the meet tonight.

adam, I didn't get the chance to talk to you about your hook up but if you could, can you please ask how much it would cost to bend/weld a custom catback? 3" into 2.25"-Y stainless steel pipes, I have a cf twin muffler that can be split-up and a pair of matching tips. I'm thinking about a one piece catback as opposed to a 2 piece (rear pipe + mufflers)


...the guy that's supposed to deliver my ultra medallion is still in iraq and is not scheduled to be back 'til DEC =/ so, I wanna have something that I can use for the meantime, until I get my tanabe catback. I could just take it to any muffler shop but I'd rather pay extra for a mandrel bent SS pipes instead of crush bent aluminized steel.
