Message	But on this rare occasion, I'll make an exception: Do you buy designer underwear just for the exclusivity and prestige? In the end (pun intended) they perform the same function as brand X underwear. It's pointless to spend extra money on something when most people won't be able to tell the difference. I'm all for a cheap exhaust that looks like the B&B quad oval yet sounds and performs better. Innovation and competition are a good thing. Don't be bitter Is that any better? Have a nice day
