Skunk2 70mm (noir-w00kie edition) lol

Crusin_w00kie · 08-01-2008, 04:45 PM

The man in brown came to town one sunny afternoon, and in his truck was something loud as f**k, and I planned on installing it today too!! lololol sorry, I'm beat as hell, the install isn't bad, but laying in your driveway sucks. I had to remove the cat too, the 3 studs have to come out so you can use the new hardware from Skunk2 for the install. Well....I know how to get to the header now at least. lolol Note: there are only 3 sizes used on this install. 12mm for the long bolts that hold the exhaust and cat in place, 14mm for all the new hardware, and 10mm to remove the heatshield off the cat to pull the old studs out. Sounds great, nice and bassey. The only thing I compare it too, is the autotech exhaust I had on my 1.8T vw....sounds awesome!!

Pics time. I need a shower and some food.

hold on wait what

I love the way that canister looks. Is this something new?

***Will06SI*** · 08-01-2008, 04:48 PM

Did you coat it with something becuase it dosent come like that.

***ryryninja*** · 08-01-2008, 04:48 PM

looks so much easier to clean

and stealthy too......

Lrg91 · 08-01-2008, 04:48 PM

whys the canister brown?

JRM_FG2 · 08-01-2008, 04:53 PM

brown? looks like a matte black to me. looks nice, did you buy it like that? and is it a 60mm or 70mm?

camaroto07si · 08-01-2008, 04:54 PM

that looks nice... i wish mine came with that canister.... is it something new or did you coat it? thats nice though because mine has turned into a bronze color...

B-Stylz · 08-01-2008, 05:08 PM

Looks like he painted it to me. Just like the Apexi piping color.

whipsnap · 08-01-2008, 05:08 PM

he sprayed it. looks phat (see attachment for evidence)

Crusin_w00kie · 08-01-2008, 05:15 PM

Thanks for the comments guys. it's the 70mm for the FA5. I masked the skunk badges, sanded it with 400 grit, cleaned it, then sprayed it. Looks pretty cool, huh?

B-Stylz · 08-01-2008, 05:17 PM

^ Yes. You need a rear far away shot.

whipsnap · 08-01-2008, 05:20 PM

yea send it to me and i'll take pics of it on my car

I'll take care of it later, going for a drive and seeing how far I get before the POlice take notice to my stealthy attempt at hiding my new toy. lol

JRM_FG2 · 08-01-2008, 05:46 PM

yes it looks really good, like it came that way. might consider doing this once my bc pro spec comes in. and bump for further away shots.

atlprofessor · 08-01-2008, 05:52 PM

Wonder what the heat will do to the paint?

***Spikez1222*** · 08-01-2008, 05:52 PM

Wow, when I get a Skunk2 exhaust, I'ma do it flat black, looks hot! lol

gsr027 · 08-01-2008, 06:41 PM

***Zeuceone*** · 08-01-2008, 06:43 PM
