Installed my Exoticspeed R1-T today!!!

I must congratulate Exoticspeed for building a great sounding exhaust. It only took me about an hour and a half by myself and in my garage with basic tools. It uses the factory hangers and everything you could need is included. They even sent two T-shirts and 4 window stickers (2 big, 2 small)!
I'm in love with the sound that comes out the exhaust!!!
I took a very short/ kinda half-*** video just in case someone wants to hear it.

they are double walled now...they must have redesigned them. My tips are polished stainless. They still sell the blue tipped one(I just didnt care for it) and they also have one they call "hyper black", which looks like a dark chrome.

I just removed the pieces that go around the tips. It took me less than two hours to remove the factory and intall this. Quick tip: smear vasoline on the factory hangers, that way the old exhaust system slides off easier and the new slide on better.

You will love the sound!

Good luck.
