Post Side exhaust for a fox body.

I did not know that there was a kit to do this, so I thought I would share. Would this look okay on my 89

That would probably look as good as side exhaust on a '79 T/A.

I've seen that STYLE on a Corvette before and thought it looked horrendous. It didn't looked like it matched up well.

Uh, it's okay, I guess. ...not my style. You'd have to worry about burning your leg every time you got out the car.

It doesn't look much different than the Borla/SVO side exhaust for 94-95. I think it would be acceptable. However, for less than 700 bucks Bassini has stainless side exhaust kits (no skirts/fibreglass) that look great and are ceramic coated.

The exhaust gas is never hot enough to burn you at door but the pipes can hurt. They sit far enough back that you would never brush them during daily use.

There is something to be said for rolling down the window and having your own exhaust roaring in your ears!
