I've had it since 2009 and it still all OEM. License plate holder still outback. OEM exhaust.
No stickers
No lights.
No shiney stuff
no powercoating
no carbon fiber
Nothing

Have stock exhaust on mine. Fortunately, being a Gixxer the exhaust is already OK sounding, plus my intake is K&N so it adds some intake noise to mask the sound of the valvetrain. Some bikes' valvetrains are so rattly and annoying that they really need an exhaust. Fortuantely that isn't the case for mine. Plus, if I went aftermarket then I would lose the cat. converter, which I don't want to do.
