I am guessing OEM vs URO?

Is that a serious question? I don't even buy URO brand PCV parts on the cars I flip because they are so crappy. I'd feel bad if the new owner had to replace everything after 6 months/10k miles.

Yeah stupid question and brain fart there.

FCP wants $150 for all OEM PCV, which I think is a good deal. I still have that FCP $100 Coupon that I won at Carlisle a couple years back.

Significantly less drone at cruising speeds (I had a 3" with a resonator on before) and still growls enough to let me know it's a 3" exhaust at WOT

Just wish it could go up a bit higher to fit more into the rear bumper.

I guess what Im saying that for the cost of a respray, he could probably find a dual exhaust bumper in better condition

when you do the rest, that you make sure the pattern follows..looks so lame when the "weave" goes in different directions.

I was very disappointed when I used seafoam. I was all excited to leave a smoke trail down the highway, but it all dissipated before I left the driveway.

What wrap did you use, and how much did you get? My wood trim is all marred and I wouldn't mind getting some of that.
