i wanna go down today and pick out the biggest tip i can find.. probably 5 inch or so... then take it to a panel beater so they can cut out a hole to fit it in the rear bumper... then go to the exhaust shop so they can cut and reweld the exhaust pipe so it sits higher... what do yas reckon and also... after a while will the rear bumper around the tip start to go black and stuff???

use a dremmel with a sanding tool. and 'sand' around the contour of your new tip :)

You'd have to make sure that the hole is in the right place for the exhaust man to fit the tip through. Sounds risky.....

Why dont have one of those round chrome mufflers and big dumpers hanging down from the back under the bumber? I reckon that would look sweet as.

You've got a Lukey on there right?

got the tip for $60
went to panel beater.. showed him where i wanted it and he cut around it - $30
then $30 to cut a new pipe to come from the muffler and weld it..

the pipe is alot shorter so my car is louder now.. sounds wicked !!
