Sorry, continuing from other thread...

Ouch! I'm surprised, since their spring install prices are so good, and they're even doing free install with the RPI now. But Gabe at Precision will do the muffler for like $80.

At least he is helping another person out. Kudos to him.

Maybe Sonic is charging you for the diffuser's drying time as well.

Oh, and bets on where this is going:

Is he offended that you are inviting over PM or something? I'm not quite understanding it.

"Someone" with awesome organization skills better get on it then.

No, but I don't think he remembers me from MFest last year, he'll just think I'm some random pw

I don't think he remember who I am either. I guess Jason does leaving a lasting impression on people - whether good or bad is up to the person to make.

SonicMS is willing to do the muffler for $60 after I told them someone else can do it for that price.

But I will take it to the place where Aleks did his...

I dont have a jack and might mess it up. Since Aleks installed his and it looks perfect! so it's better for someone experienced to do it.

Yup, it doesn't fit 100%, you need to screw it in.

looks like 3M is the way to go unless you want it permanently on the bumper. in that case, you can use gorilla glue. 3M is really thin and works well though.

yea sounds like it just uses the existing screws on the bumper.. well ive never seen an e9x bumper, but just going by that thread. even still.. a makita will work fine.

i'll let him know... He just got back to LA from Vegas today, changing the oil on the stroker cause it's full broken in already!

i'll see if he & his wife can make it out

as for the lip Trung... Vorsteiner reps told me not to use any screws... the tabs & 3m is good enough. i think mine is screwed on though
