APEXi Cat-Back Exhaust Systems

Today I added a new line of exhaust systems to my web site. It is a brand called APEXi.
Most of the exhaust systems advertise how loud they are and all of the fantastic power that they increase. The claims always seem a little exaggerated,

When I went to the APEXi (actually A'PExi) web site I found a company that I believe tells a more honest and realistic story. First their cat-back system is 50 states legal. No hassle as it is a direct factory replacement. It does not mess with the O2 sensor or the catalysis converter. Installation is straight forward at about 45 minutes.

One nice feature is that the sound level is 85db, and it is mellow. So you will not be pulled over by the local police department and charged with too loud mufflers.

This one is designed for the daily driver. It is made out of stainless, so it looks good and lasts a long time, backed by a company with a great reputation, and has been designed for a direct replacement fit.

When you are in need of a new system, I strongly recommend you check this one out.

Wheelskins What a Strange Name

I was looking around for a new product for my web sites and came across a product called Wheelskins. I could not figure out what the name meant, until I looked a little closer.

Higher end or top of the line cars may have a steering wheel cover out of leather or leather like material. My Ferrari has one, as does my wife's Jaguar. After a while the leather becomes discolored, or gouged or nicked in various places. It does not feel as good while you are driving and does not look too good either. I have tried leather cleaners and conditioners to revive the leather on some cars, but it has not worked too well.

Sometimes it does nothing, and other times the chemicals just seem to sit on the surface of the leather. Looks bad and feels worse.

The wheelskin answer is to cover or recover your steering wheel. If it is not covered now, you can get one of six sizes for your wheel. If it is covered now, you can removed your old cover or buy one size larger and place it over your existing cover.

They have the original wheelskins which come in six sizes and 15 colors, which you would think would satisfy almost everyone. However, it that's not enough for you, they now offer a two tone wheel cover. The top and bottom are one color and the sides another. I plan on putting this second product on my web site latter next week.

Drop me a line.

Altezza or Euro Tail Lights

I have recently added a line of tail lights to my web site. They are made by AnzoUSA and are of the Altezza style. I wanted to write an article for Ezinearticles.com about them so did a little research on the web.

I knew that the Altezza style meant small projector type bulbs and a large clear shield for the lights, but did not know much else. So I checked out Wikipedia.com, one of my first sources for information.

Seems like Toyota introduced a Lexus IS (Intelligent Sport) model in 1998 that had a unique looking tail light housing, with a lot of chrome inside. It really looked different than the all red or red and clear backup light area found on most other cars. The name Altezza came from the same car which was sold in Japan, and called the Toyota Altezza.

OK, I can understand this. What is confusing to me is why a Japanese style tail light is called a "Euro" style? The style did not start in Europe. However, some European car picked up the trend. Another possibility is that the Lexus IS was introduced to Europe in 1999 and in America in 2000. So I guess this style could have been called "American" style tail lights.

Does anyone have some additional information about this?
