That's part of NOKTURNAL (nationwide club with a WNY chapter), and just to update this thread, I got my SRT-4 axle back exhaust installed the other day and figured I'd put a picture up.

Not my style but the workmanship looks great....


I think the cuda stripes with the racing stripe looks like a little bit too much.

I'd ditch the cudas but that's just me.

Actually now that I think about it, you're probably the person to ask, what's the best setup to put a Neon on air and where can I get one and how much?
