Its pretty common with the 99-01 Cobra crowd over on SVTPerformance.com. Since IRS catbacks are fully exposed, it looks sick, but on a solid axle car, you would never see it unless you were under the car. It takes alot of work, & the catback has to be full stainless steel for it to polish out to a mirror like finish though...

Refer to this thread for all the info you need... 04Sleepers car is ridiculous BTW...
