Well, as a few of you may have seen I now have my Magnaflows installed. So for the rest of you I figured i'd share.

I went with the universal muffler 14814...

It took some customizing in order to get them to fit, but at the moment I am happy with them. The resonator was cut off and I went with 2.5" pipe from the cat back. The local shop also painted all of the piping with a high temp black paint...it looks clean and a bit stealthy. Here are a few pics of the install and a link to videos.

magnaflow are nice. I had them on my 05 3.5 SE Altima. Looks very nice.

I can't really tell from the pics, you didn't paint the tip of the mufflers, right?

$450 with installation or just the mufflers? I got mine my mufflers and installation for about $300. Do you know what kind of paint they used? Because I'm thinking of painting the mufflers as well. I've already blacked out the grill and the chrome trim around the windows, the chrome on the trunk is next.

I paid about $280 for the Magnaflows...state sales tax bit me because I had to bye them locally. I'm not sure what brand of paint they used...but i really like the look.

BTW, Jose do you have any pictures of your exhaust installation? I am curious to see how yours was done.

I didn't really take any. The guy did have to bend a new small piece of pipe to make them fit because the Magnaflow are straight and the stocks were off-set.

Here's mine. I went with magnaflow exhaust with 2.5" piping from the resonator to muffler pipe. I don't want it really loud that's why I didn't touch my resonator.
