Lookin' good!! I was thinking about exhaust tips on Thursday when I had my DP and cat installed. There was only one type on display that I thought might look decent on the Riv, a rectangular (almost square) style, but I wasn't ready to commit to them. Gotta look around and find something better. I like your ovals, over-sized?

Actually it is a Honda CAI. I built a heat shield for it. and the filter floats over the FWI hole. But after seeing my IATs I am going FWI soon.

You mean those marks over the tips on either end? The previous owner had put stickers there and after 11 years I had to scrape them off. Some of the sticker pealed of the plastic with it. I hope to resurface it soon.

Can you post some pics of that? With a custom airbox, it could be a good option to the March Mustang Ram Air system (which may not fit) -

BTW, I totally get the "Enterprise" Riv thing. With the wood grain the Riv dash is similiar in appearance to the D's tactical control station.

You should make a shifter knob shaped like Worf's head lmao Or not.

Looks good, I can't wait to get the paint job finished on my '95 and put mine on. If yours are the same ones I have they are the same as original across but not flattened? I got the "Black Chrome" for mine, hope they turn out as good. thumbsup

I like the oval tips the best. I had some square Corvette style tips on my '96', but I think the oval style conform to body lines better...... thumbsup

What did you use to make that FWI? Is it any different than that Honda CAI you adapted or is it the same thing?

I think he used just 2 and a half to 3 feet of intense FWI tubing. He got the 3.5 inch because the 4 inch would be too wide to fit into the fender without dremeling off material.
