Nice if you can put wheels on the roof and drive upside down so everyone can see it. lolololol
But hey who are we to call them retards if they are ballin$$$$ like that thay can afford it. It may be like us spending $100.
Me personally I am more than happy with the Racing Beat Race Pipe.
Both the RB and HKS are shinney. If you drive the car the way your suppossed to niether one should stay shinney in my opinion.

The price is not justified on how shiney it is lol, but the actual products used to make this unit. Again, this product will never be advertised here is the states but is is popular in Asia. FYI, look at the prices of other jdm manufacturers :

Because although it's a nice piece, you are paying a gigantic markup for the name. I'll say it again, it's a 150 cell cat and you could buy the best 100 cell (less is more) cat (the one Team has) on the market with a diameter pipe (the HKS looks very small) of your choosing for less. I won't call you names but agree that by no means did you get $1200 worth of anything.
The SMB pipe is very nice and about $600 shipped to the US. 200 cell cat though.

leon, as a friend, I will try my best to talk you out of this, it aint worth it yo!
and please, wtf man I cant believe u are willing to spend 1200 on a cat, that **** is insanely high, you can buy half a freaking turbo kit with that, or an INT-X, or brand new tires, or nitrous, or coilovers, or clutch+flywheel. sigh

act prolite flywheel and counterweight 330
b&b catless midpipe 260
and still enough for pullies or whatever
Hks does have good quality. But a catless midpipe will have better gains. Not to mention brand name parts for stuff no one can see....
