Apexi N1 RICE?? or NICE!!

Could you guys help me with some opinions on this muffler. I don't want something that sounds like an angry bumble bee. Heres the link. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/APEXI...QQcmdZViewItem

i found it on ebay. Would i be better off going with the greddy weld on from RRM? Ive heard that it burns your bumber and thats why im leaning towards going with the Apexi one. Smaller tip.... Thanks

it's nice, but i've seen the muffler on some civics and it's pretty dinky. Greddy or hks exhaust would look a little fuller.

Thanks for the clips and pics psmokie68! Oh and i am planning to do a custom cat back. I decided that i wanted to get a resonator also if its too loud. What size piping should i go with? And can i get a few pictures of the muffler from the back of the car if thats possible. Thanks.

i guess everyone has their own opinion of "rice" but to me, carbon fiber ebay muffler is rice, and that is reinforced by your clips, but hey, just my opinion
