Thanks for the votes so far....

my exhaust passes with the resonator still installed so I won't be going for mufflers...like the sound as is..
springs I never thought of BUT if I lower this car.. getting in and out of my driveway is going to be a huge issue (its already fun as it is) and I really don't want to rip the front end off the car.

Taking the facia off the front of the car is not difficult. I was amazed at how easy it is.

x2 - You'd be surprised how easy it is to remove the front fascia.

He was meaning ripping it off from it being so low (springs) when going into his driveway, not for adding a grille. Just want to point that out....

Haggle on price with the dealership on whatever you get. Their markup is atrocious!

I bet, if I went to a dealership like DeNooyer Chevy in Albany NY they might.... they have that special performance shop there. Thats where they make all those special editions like the LSX454

Stock grill is the best. I for sure would get rid of the muffler. Shouldn't be more then $100-$200. Its a world of difference!

I did already, muffler delete, I took the stock ones off shortly after I bought the car and to be honest I think the sound is pretty awesome especially for the price I paid to have it done.

Oh sorry, my apology. I read what your first post incorrectly. I thought you meant you were looking at those things. Ya I wish I did it sooner myself instead of spending all this time researching what cat back to get for best sound. The delete was perfect for my taste. I'm amazed at how quiet the car still is still. People who know cars know it’s not stock sounding, but they aren't really sure what it is. Kind of wish I took the resonators off too but I didn't want it to be too loud.
