ok thank i will not cut holes in my bumber

Yes, but don't you dare cut holes in the rear facia to feed them through, or we will all point, laugh at you and call you a ricer! Do it right and just use longer hangers.

I hate that GT bumper. When someone cuts holes in tha bottom and feeds like 3" SS LX tipes thru, I think it looks bad ass. Why is that rice?

 

[dvs bullet]

Besides....when you chop the bumper you can't see them anyway. All you see is about an inch of them sticking out at the end....then burnt paint and exhaust deposits all over your bumper.

Hasn't happened to me and you can see the bottoms of the tubes from a side veiw.

Because it's tacky. Chopped rear bumpers look Ghetto. Ya wanna see tailpipes so bad, but wanna keep the rest of the ground effects, then buy a Cobra or Saleen rear facia.

Iam not cutting my bumper. Who has the best price on the cobra bumper. But I would like to keep my gt bumper

 

[dvs bullet]

And I think that the cobra and saleen bumpers are too common.

 

[Gearbanger 101]

Hey guys, do what you want. It's your car, but most think it looks like crap! Sorry

Doesn't look too bad ...

I only heard somewhere (or read) that the lower lip on the GT rear bumper causes a lot of drag at top speed, which is why the Cobra and Saleen did what they did with their bumpers.

 

[Gearbanger 101]

I think it has more to do with the asthetics than anything. A lot of the GT guys liked (wanted) the look of the shiny stanless steel tailpipes running out the back, but weren't able to use the LX bumper because of missmatched body moulding. The Cobra and Saleen bumpers are kind of a nice compromise between the two.

Personally i detest pipes coming out of a GT bumper, Cobra bumpers look sweet though. As was said above, it's your car! but it still doesn't stop me from thinking what a pos it looks like.

I saw a black hatch in Flordia with two holes cut in the GT bumper. One was out farther than the other, really looked like crap. Sounded nice though, wonder what he had on it.

Thats the best I've ever seen cutouts on the GT bumper. Most I've seen make the tailpipes stick out too far. I think thats perfect. Nice work.
