So you managed to find a used one? Did it come from the UK?
Thanks! It was locally from TX!

No, it drones at the usual 2-3k RPM but just as much as the stock system. It actually sounds very OEM-ish and not as loud as I wanted so I ordered JCR non resonated OAP. Stock OAP with this exhaust is probably THE perfect setup for people that want a very good external sound with zero effect on intake noise.

Thanks. The CF NACA ducts are around $1200 but I believe if you purchase it with the hood they're discounted (don't quote me on that, reach out to them).
Nice ducts. Cheaper than the German competitor. I will have to check if they can do the GT4RS fender louvers.

Just installed JCR Titanium OAP and my god the car sounds amazing. My hearing isn't that great so the increased drone from 2-3k RPM is okay with me but my younger friends say it's bad. YMMV.

Stock OAPs weigh 12.56lb a piece while the JCR OAP weighs 3.74 lbs. I also wrapped the pipes using Titanium wrap from DEI.

Another company called Frog Venom makes a lot of CF parts the 718, including apparently the fender louvers in CF although I don't see them on the website.
