Big improvement, Karnage541, doesn't make them disappear, but they sure stand out a lot less. I made mine really disappear what all V8 A6 guys need to do.

I would have put on a new exhaust already but im waiting for at least a year untill i buy one. Im trying to get the best sound out it, and i dont want to buy one and then hear another that just sounds amazing. That would make me lol

If i hear one that is god like and fits this car perfect then i might just buy it but the plan is to wait for the best.

This is such an easy, cheap (less than $15), fun, cool mod that it deserves a BUMP. I just did this to my non-Camaro and LOVE how much cleaner it now looks.

Thank you, Karnage541, for the inspiration!

Before & After photos below. I tried to get about the same lighting conditions (failed) but I did boost the contrast on the "after" photo to try and compensate for that. I also intentionally took the "after" pix from a much lower angle to help show the difference:

I wish GM could figure out how to do that at the factory.

Btw, RAdams, nice "non-Camaro"

Did you guys take the mufflers off to paint them or did you just tape the car and spray it?
