Such aftermarket exhaust can easily modify your car and offer a road presence that could attract attention. However, you must be aware of the rules and regulations related to noise pollution in your area. It may be illegal to get such customizations to the vehicles as they could produce a lot of sound. Just like honking and new horns are banned in many parts of the country, this might attract the unwanted attention of the traffic police. Hence, make sure that you know the rules around this beforehand.
