How dumb would it look if I went ahead and got a GT rear valence. I'm thinking that since I want to go dual-exhaust in the near future, it would be dumb to get a V6 rear valence and then have to change it really soon. And, the rear valence would cover the cutting that would need to be done on my V6 bumper to get a second exhaust to fit so I would not need to worry about getting a GT rear bumper...

Opinions on this one? As well as how stupid would it look with only 1 exhaust pipe (temporarily that is)?

Oh yeah, and how expensive is the dual conversion (relatively)?

No clue on the conversion check American Muscle, and my vote would be the gt/cs rear bumper.

I would say go on and get it, get it painted with everything else, and put it on when you get your exhaust. Otherwise it will look like sometimes missing. Ooor you could go really ghetto and put 2 tips on...

I'm just doing a rear valence piece from Street Scene. It's going along with a C-Series front end and some Street Scene Side Skirts. So, to level everything out, it needs to go on when I install everything else. I'm just wondering how dumb it would look with 1 exhaust tip until I get my duals up and running.

Anyone know how much the dual conversion would be? Labor wise that is...

One more bump on this one. I still haven't decided on what to do with the rear valence. Opinions? Also, how much would a dual exhaust conversion cost, labor wise?

For all you bump haters, this is the last one, I promise...

Ok. Thanks for the info. So anyone want to chime in on the GT/V6 Rear Valence issue that I posted above?

It will look like a V6 Charger! LOL! Seriously, I wouldn't worry about it if it's temporary. It will motivate you to get the dual conversion every time you look at that ONE pipe sticking out.

And the conversion to dual is about 250 + gt axle backs from American Muscle
