G37 TopSpeed Pro-1 Exhaust

Well I really didnt want to post this but what the hell. Awhile back I contacted TopSpeed about their axleback for the G37. They agreed to send me one for a discounted price for a full review with sound clips.

When I recieved the exhaust I was more than dissapointed with the finish. It lood like the tips were rubbed aluminum foil (if you can picture that) and to top it off you can see the weld mark on the tip

I loved the way the exhaust sounded on the Z and G35 so I ignored the poor finish. I then installed the axle back (which is 4 bolts) very easy to do, not rocket science. To my surprise the fitment was like the finish CRAP

I contacted Top Speed and they said I installed it wrong and that theyve sold x amount of exhaust with no fitment problems I told them that Im not a retard and know how to install a 4-bolt axle back......

Long story short, I returned the exhaust and got my money back, never again..... Hope this helps others

RIGHT EXHAUST



LEFT EXHAUST



CRAP FINISH
