Anyone else find it annoying when you see a really nice GT and walk around to the back only to find some ugly tail pipes hanging out from under the rear?

I saw a really nice black GT for sale the other day and I was walking around it looking it over a little only to find tailpipes hanging out from under the back.
Other than that and the red interior, it was really nice.

Now that I have studied your mustang pic, analyzed it and ran it though the 'puter, I can see it's a Dech rear bumper cover

The turndowns do show a little bit on the stock style setup.


This is why i have an LX....nice purdy stainless tailpipes the way a Mustang should be.

I don't even like how my GT's stock tails are so hidden, i prefer the 94-98 style tips and rear bumper

I agree - and that's why I put a Cobra bumper and shiny pipes on my Fox GT

I dont understand people's facination with exhuast tips. The GT rear bumper was CLEARLY not ment for tips to be seen yet every redneck cuts the hell out of the bumper or just mounts some tips that hang way down. Arrrggg.

There are a few exceptions, like the canadian guy that is starting the turbo build, red GT? His looks tastefully done, not all ghettoed up, nice and even.
