Dude, you're a fool. People have opinions and when you ask a question you WILL get opinions whether asked for or not. Deal with it! Heck, IMO, baby blue lx's are ugly as hell and tons of other people think the same way. What's the deal with the 4 eyed pride statement? If your referring to the fact that some people get upset when the front end is ripped off and the "aero" front end is stuck on what's wrong with that? There are alot less of these cars than there are of the 87 thru 93 left. I have yet to see a conversion that looks good. Usually the car looks like it was hit, with the yellow headlights misaligned and the mismatched moldings. Just go buy one that was made by the factory instead of creating something that will end up worthless.

It's not baby blue

I just think that the guy has made his decision, it's not the end of the world to put holes in the GT bumper. If you do it right it looks great, like the half cut-outs on astronaught's car.

The 4 eyed pride thing, i love those cars. They look mean as hell.. and i'd like to have one sometime, so i'm not against them at all.. it's just a similar type of deal. The same people, post the same thing every time, and flip out with longass posts.. it's getting old (i meant old in my "4 eyed pride" statement).

This is a tech board, and he got only 1 tech response out of the first 10 posts.

Wrong, he was given advice on what options some of us consider decent or downright attractive for tailpipes out the rear of GT's

A few people told him to buy a cobra bumper.. thats what, $400 after prep and paint? Cutting holes in your
GT bumper is less than a few dollars worth of dremel bits, and it CAN look good.

Hey Astronut,DUDE! hats off to ya,I agree with everyone else here ,everytime I ever saw someone try to do that it looked really cheesy!I always wanted an after market set for my WHITE LX, but the stainless tail pipes on LX's are so darn good looking.but I might if I can get it to look like yours! Wanna do mine?-----------LOL/ Hey theres a million dollar idea there!!

Thanks man. It was my second attempt at body modification (the first being my hood scoop), and I think for an inexperienced 18yr old it came out good. The molding is actually fuel line to hide the cuts, because it isn't the smoothest and the material the bumper is made out of is yellow and you could see it on the edges. I really like the way it looks, I think it makes the rear look more aggressive and less in need of Jenny Craig. All it takes is a dremel, some patience, and a little imagination. Again, my one tip: Measure many times, cut once! Trust me, no one will let you hear the end of it if they come out uneven. Good luck and feel free to PM me if you have any questions.
