Show us your butt.

Here's mine decked out with Vintage Speed exhaust. This should make it 20% faster. Along with Van Cafe's receiver hitch to slow it back down.

Didn't fit the huge pipes at first. Had to trim the valence.

Such a silly thread topic, but what can I say, I'm also a butt guy. And while it's not shown in the photo I replaced the stock 2-into-1 part of my exhuast with the Vintage Speed version and eliminated a couple exhuast leaks.

Just luck of the draw. It is easy to remember. I did pay extra for the killer turtle pic.

I did a double take to confirm you actually live in Montana. Home of absentee corporate car owners. Well done.

Are you going to buff up the Asswipe Brown to match those pipes?

Yeah, it’s another loss of tax revenue that I end up paying for through my property taxes. I get real pissed off when I see MT plates on Lamborghinis for sale on Bring A Traiiler and similar auction sites.

And that’s saying nothing about my mooching family members wanting me to “buy them” an RV or poach an elk hunting license for them.

It looks great with the BRM style wheels. I lusted over those when I was in high school driving a Super Beetle.

I got two pet turtles, bought them when they were babies. They are now 52 years old. I may have to write them into my will, they may outlive me.
