Vanity Plates

Well, I have an 01' SSEi, it's a pretty quick car and after i'm finished getting it all done I would like to slap a vanity plate on it, what are some good ideas?

Exhaust Leak

I have an exhaust leak on my 01' SSEi and it sounds horrible, kind of like a moped going down the street or a really weak Harley, I believe it's from the front of the exhaust, probably the manifold but i'm unsure. If anyone has had a similar problem please let me know!

The previous owner, to put it lightly, let the car get pretty bad.

We're currently in the process of rebuilding the transmission (he ran it without fluid) burned the clutches right off.
