No, just a very slight shimmy that comes and goes, in a pattern, with or without A/C. Had thought it was tires, had it balanced before, then got new tires, still does it.

Looking for Carmine red license plate filler panel

I was wondering if anyone had the Carmine Red front plate filler panel for a 1998. I bought mine in a state that had front plates, Indiana doesn't, so I have a hole there! Thanks

They're straight through. The mufflers are bigger around than the resonators, but shorter. Somewhat loud, but not overly so, wife just doesn't like them too much.
