Isn't there quite a big difference in price between the exhausts. (WS+RSR)

The RSR exmag is pretty expensive for just the exhaust correct. For the price of the RSR couldn't you just get an Apexi WS catback and have some extra change in your pocket. It's like getting more for less no. What's the best price you can get on these RSR systems.


The RSR is a very nice looking sleeper exhaust but I'm not feeling a stainless steel exhaust painted flat black. That's just to keep the "stealth look".

Yeah you got a good deal on that from what I see. What exactly did you pay $470 for? When advertised it says the RSR is a catback system, but I only see a picture of the flat-black painted exhaust. Like the one posted in this thread.
I'm somewhat interested in the exhaust it's just the paint that hasn't grown on me yet. It's a very nice looking exhaust.

If anyone is interested, I got it from:

http://www.turboimport.com/catalog/accord.htm

The people over there seemed pretty nice and answered all my questions promptly.

That exhausts all black looks pertty tight! I can't belive I didn't think of doing that! What kind of paint did you paint that with! I remember painting a grill with some black grill paint, do you think that will work or is there a glossy paint like yours I could get? I got an EX, so its a double tip, should look good!

The exhaust comes with the black coating on it from the factory and from what the tech at RS-R told me it should stay on for quite some time.

I have, in the past, on other cars, used high-temp paint that is used for painting cast-iron stoves with good luck, the only trick is to paint it before you you ever use the exhaust, so that there is no dirt to forbid the paint from sticking.
