    Those look like just single round clamps? I can't imagine those even can provide any kind of clamp load.

    U-bolts do work well (once), but stepped band clamps really do an awesome job.

    Yes their clamps BLOW!! I swapped them out for the also cheap but at least effective U-bolt style and mine has been fine. A few V bands could make their kits much nicer.

    I forgot to update on the exhaust! The are speed engineering true duals. They are technically for LS cars, the main modification that was made to the kit to fit LT1 cars was just extending the pipes pretty much. It sagged hardcore over the past two weeks. It can go up way more still. The clamp bolts were cheaper than a Chinese hooker. That's the main issue as to why it sagged, the clamps couldn't get tight enough. Haven't really had the time to mess with it lately. Overall I couldn't be more pleased with the exhaust. The sound is mint. It's not crazy loud. I'm doing tan interior because I like it. Picking up new door panels too. My friend bought a camaro too. Yikes! Exhaust video: https://youtu.be/JYPHHoeu9iI

    Yes, it looks more like those.

    I wasn't even aware there were more than one kit out there.

    So that waterless wash/wax is good for cleaning jambs and what not?

    I usually wipe those down after I dry the car off (to get those dry, and to clean them), but this would be a good way to do it between washes too.
    It worked really well. I definitely recommend it!

    Spoiler looks good.

    Love the sticker...I did not notice the typo.

    Cleaning those jambs makes such a difference. And the water-less wash products are amazing. I've only washed my car with a hose 2 or 3 times in the years I've owned it.

    Yes and no. It was from NOWO which is some German car meet. They handed these out and friend gave me it. Nobody realized it until we reviewed photos we took that night.
