No what im saying is if you made that peice alot of people including me would buy it for a stock bumper. Think how many people have a single exhaust???They would all love to fill in the second exhuast hole in the rear bumper.

the vicous cycle doesn't seem to stop for some... others break one too many parts along with their bank account and end up parting everything out... for less than they paid... then taking a break for a while only to start the process all over again because they saw a deal that was just too good to pass up...

Dangit, I know I saw a thread with two 3000gt's that had ferrari rear ends. They were in some other country, I think it was a red and a blue one...

Anyone thought of doing an exhaust to go straight through and out of the center?
ever thought of removing your gas tank too? there is stuff in the way for a center exhaust. sure it can be done but wouldn't be worth the trouble

Some nice concepts there. I like the the first gen bumpers(with 99 center garnish of course) but I could definitely see this upgrade on a Stealth or 2G.

yeah i can quote some other posts if you'd like Honestly though, if you take a peek under the rear bumper, we have a big ass gas tank under there, shifted a bit towards the passenger's side. this makes our cars ideal for a single exhaust on the drivers side..there is hardly any room on the passenger side. wider mufflers won't fit there. Mind you I am not talking about what would look the best, i am speaking in terms of practicality and what actually makes sense. if you want a bumper that utilizes a center exhaust, plan on removing that gas tank, or fabbing up some pos pipes that run around it...but not too close cuz it is your gas tank after all and then you've hurt performance and ruined something that is simple and better in every way possible (except for maybe looks, cuz thats subjective) just my 2c, dont gotta get defensive about it pumpkin
