I have a z28 catback in my garage waiting for me to put it on. lol

Did you put it on yourself? Im trying to figure out how to hang it, and what kind of adapter I need to weld it in to my stock pipe.

The hangers are the same. Take it to a muffler shop and have them cut yours off at the muffler and weld the new muffler on and hook up the hangers. But DON'T use the z28 mid pipe. It will be 10 times as hard trying to finagle it over the axle. Just use the muffler and outlets.

Looks good! The camera makes that look like the Dark Charcoal interior not the ebony, am I just seeing it wrong? My car has the Dark Charcoal and my wife's car has the Ebony and it is a big difference.

Maybe it is dark charcoal. I'm not sure. All I know is it's sweet.

Mikey: It cost me $40 to have it welded and hung up. That was including the catalytic converter being welded too. You could probably get it completely installed for $30-$35

I'm going to do HID simulated bulbs up front, LED interior, and some paint on the front bumper. Other than that, I'm not sure yet. I wanna do a different exhaust system and headers but that will come later. The LED write up will be here soon. I'm still waiting for the lights to come in the mail. I'll post a link to the write up, here, when I do it.

My LED's came in the mail today. I will try to do the swap and write up the "how to" thread some time this weekend. But we're getting some insane snowfall right now. It may have to wait for a while until the weather clears up.
