Same man. That ECS one I linked looks like a knock-off of this knock-off. Can't speak for fitment, but it looks very similar and it comes primered. Could paint match it to anything.
Started OEM LED Xenon retrofit. Headlight guides are shot though, so I'll have to wait now until the replacements arrive. Grrrr.
Extremely envious of that garage, wow.

I'm pretty sure you just need the street or track "j-pipe" to make it a full 3" system:

Whether or not they're still around to sell it, I don't know, but you could always post up a WTB ad on here or Vortex and see if anyone has one laying around

Got my spark plugs and oil changed so that was some good maintenance out of the way. Got all the part numbers I need to order for my bumper and found out that the protective coating on my Osrams is coming off so i'll have to figure out what to do about that. Any of you with the osrams may want to look into coating them somehow to prevent this from happening. Gonna reach out to Osram and see if there is anything they can do about it although my hopes really aren't high.

Is it on the outside or inside?

I think it's on the outside. People on facebook are saying its the protective coat degrading.

I'll stay tuned to hear what you find out. I'd like to grab a set of OSRAMs one day and I'd like to keep them fresh for as long as possible.

That is completely unacceptable. I'm sorry you are having troubles with those lights.

They're still around. Yeah debating that or just having a shop fab something up. I dont have a vbanded DP, so I'd want to have the turbo side flanged to mate up and the other to be v banded.
