2003 350Z owners: is this a stock muffler?

[rith]

Can anyone tell me if this is a stock exhaust on my 2003 350Z? I just got this car and I'm not sure if this is stock exhaust (besides the obvious gash in the skin) Since I need to look for replacement..

what the fuck happened?? did it bottom out on something?

[ninspeed]

does not look to be stock... lookslike somebody slid into something with the spare tire on, and the marks on the bumper

Previous owner decided to go all Hummer on a curb I think....

I bought the car from an auction... :P

edit: Hmm.. not stock? hmm.. . guess I'm going to get my old man to tig weld the skin back together for now..

no thats not stock
the stock one is a single muffler with 2 tips running out of it

this is a magnaflow but same design as stock

Not stock. As already noted probably due to running that spare too long.

Nah, the guy jumped a curb, wrecked the front following items

hood
front bumper
rad support
rad
condensor
lower pass control arm
pass fender
1 heavily curb rashed rim
1 missing rim
AC evaporator
ripped the 1 muffler skin..

So I need the above parts. ;p

Would a black carbon fibre Seibon hood look pimp on the blue 350Z? or is that too rice?


The hood was wrecked because when he jumped the curb it yanked the hood down with the front latch until everything broke..
I chucked the hood cuz it had ripples allover the top. :(

[Raz2]

may I inquire as to how much you got it for?

I wanted to get a 350Z but then I realized I hardly fit in one, let alone drive it :)

i think the carbon fibre hood would look great? :thumbsup:

I got it for a bit over $20,000.

[camaro]

good investment if you ask me.

[DelSoln]

I think the cf hood would look fine. If you are really concerned about it looking like rice then just have it painted.

Yeah, I think I'll just get a cf hood for now and leave it unpainted... (Reducing my costs) it's not like its an unpainted body kit..

;P

Yeah, it's an awesome investment because I could turn around and sell it..

But I won't... I <3 this car.:love:



Any guesses as to what exhaust that is? I couldn't see any badging on it.

Oh btw, the exhaust sounds nice.. even with the gash ;)

I drove it onto the trailer and off into the garage... I felt 350X better when we found out the car runs/drives :)

that's not a stock muffler, looks like a tannbe or a rsr exhaust ( don't quote me tho) usually the higher end type exhaust systems have a marking etched in to the muffler and it should be a dual.

I was thinking of selling my carbon hood, but let me know when your looking to get one. It's the carbon black non painted. Good luck with your build up

Go read your PM's :P
