    Really!! I'll have to ask Sean if he knows. Can't just look underneath, because there are panels that cover everything.

    Dude,

    You must have put some prison work in plates.... Those are top notch... Can I give you 30 cents, or a piece of saltwater taffy for a custom set?

    I was wrong. Those panels do not cover the center section exhaust. I just looked under there and can see the stock center resonator.

    I'll probably drive the car for awhile longer and think about it, before changing anything.

    Gary - Congrats! Do you have any hi-res shots? I'm asking because I haven't seen titanium before - it looks friggin' amazing! (nice english, eh?).
    My wife os a fan of Grigio Silverstone - but I think I like Titanium more.
    Thanks in advance.

    There are some high res photo icon buttons that are still up on the dealer's web site.

    Titanium really changes a lot, depending on the amount of light hitting it. I was really surprised by the large amount of silver metal flake that shows up in direct sunlight.

    I'm very happy with the color!
