Gauging interest on an exhaust, Turn down/dolphin tip/JDM

This is something I have been working on for a while and it looks like I maybe finally able to get this going. It's a turn down style exhaust, there is only one I know of, the garage HRS, and I think it has been discontinued.

I want to know if the community would be interested in this exhaust. It's 100% stainless steel, prices are not set firm yet but will be around 400$ shipped for a catback exhaust. It maybe possible for you to ship your exhaust to me but the tip will have to be 4in.

I am working on a canister/N1 style as well and will have it complete soon, also installed pics should be up by this weekend.

***Please note the model in the pics is a perrin converted exhaust and the prototype. The models for sale will be much cleaner.***

Please let me know what you think, thanks. Brian

Its definitely different.. just not my cup of tea personally.. i. this type of exhaust pointing down reminds me of diesel based cars like my old 2.0 TDI Jetta..

the style is actually functional as well, if you're running a little rich this will keep the black build up off of your bumper

I like it!

Post up pictures from different angles when you get around to it.

Quick question - Is that an M3 style spoiler from ebay? I've been looking around and someone else found a BMW M3 48" trunk spoiler (they forwarded me the link) like the one on the white evo pictured above...is that what you put on??.... Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
