Much like Marc said in that thread, makes them sign a waiver saying that the car is to be returned in the same condition (with the exception of the kit) it was given to them and it must be back in your hands in 6-7 weeks.
chances are, that thread was about 4 years old and somehow i can see there experiance and process being alot smoother now then it was back then, if that thread was only a year old at the oldest then i would be really concerned but again, we'll still have to do the proper, up to date, research on them.

Let us get more info and then we will press forward. Like I stated earlier, Oldsman and I are gonna try to get together and review pics and info they compiled a few years back. I will then call bodykits and ask more questions. Not a whole lot was going to get done over Thanksgiving.

Does anyone have any pics of the underside of the back so you can see how the exhaust was routed? Just wondering what it looks like.

Doesn't really matter how they did it, as long as the exhaust exits here.

Accually I was wondering if there was enough room to route the piping from where it comes out now...(drivers side) over to the middle while still keeping a clean look or If it had to be re-routed all the way back.

has to be rerouted, stock exhaust wont work. For the best fit i have my slp already prepiped to bend around to the center. Thats gonna be your best bet to get the fitment. The tips are gonna be a whole nother thing. I know scot has some vette tips that are close but they are a lil rounded at the ends.

k so, where it comes past the rear "axel" you can bend it from there to come to the center and not hang too far down or anything. That's what I meant by the stock location I just didn't explain it very well. As for the tips ya I know they are going to have to be custom to be exactaly like the osv or the vette ones to be close.

yea, the muffler goes sideways and the pipes bend around the muffler and into the end there, its about as tight of a fit as a jersey hooker so you got room to modify
