if you go to a exhaust shop they should know what they are doing
as for the exhaust melting the bumper just get a dump tip ;)

mr_roberto, you are a mind reader :P lol the muffler i have in mind is a dumper :P
im just hoping to be able to hide it a little tho, i dont want it to sit to much below the bumper....is there enough space there to fit a round muffler?

the dump tips should sit just behind the bumper
pretty much where its sitting now
you should be able to extend it out more if you want to
you can try a round straight tip but it will melt your bumper unless you get a bumper with the exhaust hole already cut out

No to the melting but you said you're getting a dumpy tip so it doesn't matter. The stock piping is a funny thing, it goes from 2" to 2.5" and anything in between in area's.

The exhaust shop can do 2 things, either get an adapter ring and weld that onto the 2"-2.5" exhaust pipe and weld the 2.5" end onto your muffler or get the same sized adapter plate that bolts the last bit of exhaust pipe and muffler on (it's on top of the rear axle) and just weld a 2.5" pipe into that and bend it down and your done.
