Stock, but I did paint all the exposed with high temp flat black as well as the shield that protects the spare tire. Looking at my white tahoe from across the parking lot with the exhust blacked out gives itvery clean body lines. It was my very first mod Modest I know but you have to start somewhere right?

I know this is anecdotal, but from all the posts I've read here and elsewhere, I'd say the consensus is with Magnaflow.

I have a 50 series flowmaster not too loud but give a nice deep rumble when needed.

Exhaust is based on personal preferences. I eliminated my resonator and went with approximately 16in stainless exhaust tip. I matched where the exhaust pipe originally extended.

I no longer have to see the ugly resonatornor the blahexhaust pipe. Verysubtle and gives a clean appearance.

Also Corsa,which would of been my choice over the Magnaflow I have now, but I didn't care for the rear exit look. Rumor has it that they will be coming out with the side exit.

How does it sound now? Any drone?

73shark - nope, no drone. That's why I went that route. I had flowmaster on one of my Chevy trucks (changed it out twice)and the drone at certain speeds drove me crazy. Most of my driving is on highway (100-mile back/forth to work every day)so I am super-sensitive to the drone.

I wanted subtle, just a tad bit more than stock, yetloud enough to hear when I huff-puff around folks going slow in the left lane. Just removing the resonator did the trick and saved me tons of money.
