From interior to exterior to high performance - everything you need for your Stinger awaits you...
Installed K&N Typhoon. Fairly easy/smooth process. Hoses are now just a tad 'long' relative to stock. After being a bit anxious/concerned with having issues on the brand new car, I'm glad I did it. Someone was a bit zealous in tightening the stock driver's side tube clamp!

A little blk on blk Stinger emblem action. It makes it a little hard to see. Maybe too hard. Not sure if I’m sold on it or not also have a blk GT but I’m not sure if I’m putting it in and if so where CCD5B455-3ECB-486B-A1D6-30584D3956C3.webp

Did you swap the left to right as supposed, if so it ok to trim a little bit of the hose.

Thanks. I tried both ways and made sure the intake tubes were completely seated. Either way the hoses have some slight/partial kinks. Might do a little trimming...

It you're going for subtle, then black script on black is a good decision. The "GT" could go on the front grill like a number of members have done (albeit with Red GT mostly). Then you can powder coat your wheels black and be like the next Knight Rider or Batmobile. :D If you wrap your dark chrome in black that would be the extreme move. But if you make your script and "GT" dark chrome, and colored your wheels to match, then you'd have a very subtle two-tone color scheme.
 
Got some tips on my MBRP exhaust which has solved the excessive drone at 2k RPM. Still sounds good at the top end as well. Not the happiest with the look / fitment of the tips I got so may look to replace in the future but the effect is worth more than the looks.

^^^The size seems fine, but should the tips have been shorter?

Merlin I thought about that dark chrome but I couldn’t find it. Thought about trying to slightly smoke the badges I had but the results weren’t consistent enough. I like where your heads at tho
 
I installed the noico "dynamat" in the trunk. It definitely helps with the drone but it's still there. I tried to wrap the exhaust to fill the void between the outlets and the actual exhaust but I couldn't get a good fit. I will need to get it up on a hoist to get a good install of that. With it wrapped poorly and not secured I took a quick drive up the street and it definitely helps.
