picked up a nice used set of factory 2012 gt 500 axle back mufflers. They needed to TLC and got polished up and the rear of the muffler cans painted high temp flat black.
here are the mufflers as I picked them up
getting ready to polish and paint
one side polished one side not
taped up for paint
painted up
installed. yes I know the pass side was hanging a bit lower in this pic. I had to loosen the muffler to mid pipe connection and pull it down and then retighten to get the tip moved up toward the bumper. ran out of light for another pic.
what a PITA swap. these mufflers are stupid heavy from the factory and hanger mounts being hidden takes the help of a second person. All in all I couldnt be happier with the swap. should have come with these from the factory. makes the rear sound as good as the side exhaust with the plates removed. surround sound exhuast note!
Will post a quick vid once its done uploading.
