Default Help me pick a muffler

I need a muffler for my civic, and I don't want a fart cannon. I would like something that looks nice and sounds good, very close to stock because I use the car as a commuter and I don't want to constantly hear and that noise. So if anyone knows a good muffler, plz let me know. I found this Tanabe Hyper medallion, has anyone had any experience with it??

i think the hyper would look better overall but you should really consider a cat-back exhaust instead of a universal muffler

Muffler+Stock Piping=Fart Cannon.

I've yet to hear one that sounds nice.

I believe magnaflow makes a very similar design in 3 inch.
