Cody Chornobey Powley Posted April 29, 2016 Report Share Posted April 29, 2016 Its a resonator but a tip version. Cut out alot of high pitch tone, its just vinyl pin stripe, but since the fog light turned out great I'll be doing the rest of them all gloss black, decided to keep my diffuser how it is now cause I didn't realize my front matches the back lol. I'm actually taking my journey into the shop, needs a new front axle on the passenger side, but yeah once I get back from my road trip in three weeks I can paint the rest of it dhh3 and R4V3N 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody Chornobey Powley Posted April 30, 2016 Report Share Posted April 30, 2016 The other day I painted the letters black and today I painted the back bumper and decided to ditch the red mud guards and go gloss black, once those are done and ready to be put back on I'll post a pic, still gotta do the front bumper and side skirts, after seeing his new diffuser all gloss I had to do it lol dhh3, SeanTacular and R4V3N 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of tape and plastic wrap. About an hr and a half of prep work, light sand over the plastic and cleaned it with alcohol Animal Mother and dhh3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cody Chornobey Powley Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Decided to take an update pic of the mud gaurds installed, no more red, kinda miss the red but also digging them in gloss black. I think once it's all done it will come together and I'll like it even more. You guys like them in red or black? dhh3 and R4V3N 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody Chornobey Powley Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 The bottom reflectors got some gloss on them.also. trying to find some kind of lighting to mount to them as reverse lights I was going to use eagle eye LEDs and drill though and have about ten on each one. The same ones I had on my bottom grill before my accident. Those would be awesome. They give a wide output and low to the ground lights everything up. I'll be sure to take some pics of wiring and function once it's done dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhh3 Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Have one side red, the other black. This way you have the best of both worlds! I liked the red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R4V3N Posted May 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2016 Definitely black looks better than red! You should smoke the rear light as well to match. Hope that is paint. Film just does not look good. I had mine painted smoke candy red for all rear lights. dhh3 and Cody Chornobey Powley 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cody Chornobey Powley Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 Tinted the tail lights going on black. Was at a meet spot a bunch of us guys go to and had a cop pull up and said my journey looked great. Best looking one in town he said, also mentioned he liked it blacked out at the back. I asked him if they were fine and he said yes there's no problem with them haha. Everyone loves the manvan dhh3 and Animal Mother 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightRoller Posted August 31, 2016 Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 Looking super sharp all around. I love the exhaust and the rear treatment. Nicely done!  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R4V3N Posted August 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2016 Thanks guys.. appreciated!  Depending on how you want your DJ to look, you will require to make a new the rear diffuser if you install a quad tip exhaust.   My DJ has the 2.4L engine (1 muffler, 1 exhaust tip), hence I had to make the new rear diffuser to accommodate the quad tip.  For 3.6L engine it already has a twin muffler hence need not change the rear diff.  Just to note that a mod is necessary only when the exhaust tip is larger than the rear diffuser cutout.   The sequence I did it was to acquire the double exhaust tip (in order to have an idea of the diameter size and its width).  Bring it to a body shop to make a new rear diff.  I will be handy to have a photo of a rear diff to show them. Put your own flair to it if you want to.  For me, I just kept it simple.  Once painted and installed, I then headed to a muffler shop to install the aftermarket muffler and quad tip.  Fitment was no issue.  Hope this helps..   jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAM Posted September 1, 2016 Report Share Posted September 1, 2016 ok thank`s  a lot for this informations R4v3n! I think the dual tip akrapovic are the best for a red Dodge journey! i would like know where are you found the diffuser winglets like your picture? they from the corvette website or? thank`s again!  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R4V3N Posted September 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2016 Hi Bam.. it is not from the corvette.  I think they have their exhaust outlet in the middle.  I wanted something similar to the first picture in the post (merc c63), yet I wanted the edges curved.   Here's a pix that you can show to your local body shop.  It would be even sweeter in Carbon.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
