Hey bro, forget the pics...break out a camcorder and record the sound. A couple of passes at power would be nice along with a ride in the car. Don't worry about the looks; if someone wants it chromed, have that as a option. Powder coated? Same way or just sell it raw and let the buyer worry about it. I would hope you would be sub $400 raw.

Thanks for giving us another option when it comes to a muffler.

Sorry to be a skeptic, but I don't see how the balance tube would eliminate the drone, especially with straight through mufflers. I had a GHL exhaust which also has a balance tube and it droned quite a bit. The drone is due to the short length of the exhaust path. The only way around it is to create a longer exhaust path, which is essentially what the stock exhaust does, or to incorporate a resonance camber, which would require a lot of R&D.
