The decals are sold in the Group Buys section of the marketplace. You might be able to ask the seller for the template, but he'll probably just tell you to buy them lol.

Whatever is accessible through Google Images... always seemed like fair game to me.

I think I like this one better, although all the thin elements look kind of fragile.

Yeah that'll work. Thin stuff dosen't matter since you pull it off with transfer paper.

I've actually cut smaller... I made some infiniti logos to put on my centercaps.

The piping on the Tanabe mufflers is actually 60mm (about 2-3/8"), so it isn't really a bottle neck. I just had them remove the reducer section off the end of each muffler pipe when then welded on the custom piping.

Thanks for clarifying! That was a big concern of mine.

The piping on the entire stock exhaust is a bottle neck lol. Lots of pipe size changes in the midpipe and muffler section. Apparently the inlet of the Tanabe is 50mm (where the pipe meets the resonator) and the outlet is 60mm (on the other side of the canister where the tips are). Since the Tanabe is a bolt-on muffler section I believe the 50mm inlet is the same as stock.


That's probably why it's so quiet.

Very true! Kinda dumb lol. The stock exhaust is 1.69 inches at the axle so about 42mm-45mm. Stock axle back is a 1.7in inlet (inner diameter). That's why making a muffler delete is a royal pain in the ***. I had to buy 1-5/8 inch piping and then have a muffler shop expand it to 1.7 inches so it wouldn't leak. And I don't understand why the exhaust is that small. Probably why it runs rich as ****

Makes buying a whole new exhaust system down the line very tempting.
