IMHO, if you have exhausts on both sides, you should have the engine that deserves it (never understood that about the S2K; a 4-banger doesn't deserve 2 tips, and it just adds weight anyway, which is what that car should be avoiding). Unless you're going to transplant a c32/c55 into your car, the one side is fine.
Besides, you've got to get the suspension/sways done, so you need the money for that.

It would look funny if it were open on both sides, and you only had an exhaust on one side. Otherwise, why would it look funny?

i think there was one w203 either here or mymb that used the diffuser with only 1 side cutout. It looked pretty good.
Thats the same company i got mine from, they shipped it pretty quick.

MUFFLER INSTALL
Thanks to BlackLqourish8 for this. Got the Magaflow 14815 street. Pretty good. Looks OEM and awesome.
I didnt delete my resonator because I already liked how deep it sounded. Didnt want it any louder.

Finally got em in 19 brabus rep from thanks to eugene for this.
Sits perfect on the stock suspensions. No rubbing whatsoever.
If i change my exhaust, does this affect the warranty? been trying to search the forums on this. I'm still covered until next year or 100,000.00
Enjoy!

NEW TIRES
Finally got new front tires. It matches my rears now. All running on General Exclaim UHP. The front wheels were too loud which bothered me. It was a federal brand. Now its all nice and quiet. Crappy pic. Almost forgot to take it. Going for Service B in a few weeks. Hitting 65k soon. Still saving on coilovers next.

CONFUSED
Guys, I already ordered my CF roof spoiler. When I arrive from the Philippines in a couple of weeks i'll install it already...
I'm confused whether to get CF trunk lip too...Gary has a sale..
In addition to that, a carbon fiber diffuser...
Too much CF???????
Or should i just get the trunk lip body colored?
Any suggestions are welcome
