Exhaust swap

Exhaust swap
Ok guys, doing an exhaust upgrade soon. I'm looking at a set of ceramic long tube headers, H-pipe for the mid pipes, and deciding on the mufflers. Now the sound that I am looking for is like the sound clip on this page:
http://www.americanmuscle.com/99gtmawti.html
inb4 "that's a GT your car wont sound like that." I got that. I'm looking for mufflers that are going to have that deep, low sound to it. I've heard some nice sounding v6's on here, one specifically sounded great to me and I wrote down the mufflers that he was using a while back and I lost the paper O.o So, recommendations? Sound clips are a plus.
Also, I'm looking at the MAC long tube headers from American Muscle and a lot of the reviews say that it was a really hard fit, some say the K-member or motor mounts had to be modified, some say the starter was in the way, one guy said the steering column was in the way. I personally think that at least two of the reviews were people who didn't really know how to do the install and ran into stupid complications, and several were people complaining about having to extend the O2 sensors and if you're going to complain about that then you're a sissy and didn't need to do the job anyway. But as far as the motor mounts go, has anyone here had any trouble with the long tubes on this car?

Also, I want to get the rear bumper changed to fit the dual exhaust, where did you get that bumper that doesn't have the "Mustang GT" on the back of it? There is a guy here that has one of the cheap dual exhaust set ups on his mustang with the giant chrome tips coming out of the back of it and it looks and sounds retarded because he has the stock bumper on it and the tips are pushing up against the bumper. And I don't want mine to look like that lol

I've seen a photo of a Mustang in panda paint with a bumper cover that said "INTERCEPTOR" on it, but Ford never actually went into production on a (New Edge) Mustang Interceptor, so this has to be doctored.
