Looks good for DIY. Hope you expect your downpipe to crack a few times…Lee stopped making piecut downpipes and has since switched to a single tight radius bend for a much more reliable design.

That’s an easy task… so is converting it to AWD at the same time… Just takes a trip to the Mazda dealership with your existing car and some extra money. 😉
Back on topic, what were you doing with the front bumper this time Bryan?

It is a joke, and Walter has a long history of ripping on Bryan for modding a Hyundai. Fact is, though, it is still running, long beyond and better than what most people thought it would.
