Did someone just mention Koni?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Koni, Koni, Koni, Koni, Koni (this is the first verse of the Koni song I am considering writing)

They are one of my favorite products from the Netherlands.

Been on a little hyades from the site for a while. Went to Tahoe and the cabin did not have internet and have been pretty busy this week at work and such. Anyway I finally got a chance to take a picture of the installed Invidia exhaust that I did last week and download the pictures from the install night. After the pictures were taken I washed her up. I should have washed her and then took the pictures but the lighting would have been bad. Anyway here are the pics.

I am thinking about flipping the band clamp that holds the tips onto the exhuast pipe so the bolt is facing up because if you look at the right angle walking past the car you can see the clamps.

onzedge 03-29-2012 09:53 PM

That looks nice, Mr. Srenity. Yes -- rotate that clamp.

Thank you Mr. OnZedge!! I will rotate the clamp next week when I get back under the car to install the eibach sways.:driving:

I like the sound of the invidia. It is pretty agressive when you are on it but it is not too loud and is pretty quite when crusing.

Been offline since the bro had to go to ER from his previous surgery. Most know the story. So running a fever at 102 and then an infection. So they did surgery again and reopening recent wounds is taking a toll on recovery. Taking it day by day, only been out twice since the 7th of March. Will be in and out of the forum for awhile. Take care Z community and thanks to all of the well wishes.
