Says he has two sets. He says he has one complete stock drive shaft and the other is the back half.

Unfortunately one was around when I brain-farted, wasn't paying attention, and drifted up to 86 in a 70 mph zone...

Or the d-bag that runs up the shoulder to make a right turn at a light with a long line of cars - you know the same right turn you want to make from the actual turn lane - so when you try to get in the turn lane they get all bent out of shape because you didn't check first to see if someone was driving up the shoulder.

YES!!! Just like the guy turning right is suppose to yield before going, but instead feels the law doesn't pertain to him so he almost hits you, but honks his horn thinking he has the right of way

All those aholes

It's especially embarrassing for me since I had a bright 86on my windshield HUD. Note to self: pay the f**k attention and stop thinking about s**t while driving!!!

Haha true! Even us without the HUD have the speed shown to us in 2 different ways, sooo no excuses? Still happens.

Oh yeah so today I went by my dealership to straighten out some paper work issue from forever ago and one of the guys that helped sell me the car was checking it all out and almost seemed like he was frowning upon the bigger tips that were put on my ride when I had it straight piped. Can he actually try and say something to me? I mean I did plenty of reading but they cant try and go extreme and void my warranty or anything can they? Just made me a bit curious.

Yep, you're right. Luckily my spotless 30yr driving record (not anymore) helped me get a judgement reducing the offense to speeding with no report to the DMV, so no hit to my insurance...whew! A hefty fine, but no lasting damage...

It only voids the warranty w/r to what was modified; that is no warranty repairs on your exhaust pipes where the muffler delete was done (obviously). I suppose if your large tips caused some melting of your diffuser, then they would balk at replacing it under warranty. Otherwise, every other part of your warranty stands.
