Default rear bumper question

recently i just got some flows and had them dumped, now my question is do they make something for the back bumper that i can put on to cover up the cut out for where the tail pipes used to be?? or would i just be better off to get a v-6 bumper??

Yeah depends on what you want to do, v6 bumper or roush rear valences. Sometimes you ca nfind the valences real cheap, $150 for both, but i don't know how much you can get a v6 rear. Just an alternative. Oh, one question, why did you have them dumped?

Im getting ready to do the same thing! It may have been you I was talking about in one of my last posts about putting a V6 bumper on. That will probably be my direction that way I can stick with the "factory" look. The turndowns are for sound. The car will sound better with the echo from it being underneath the car. Its kind of like driving in a tunnel where it magnifies the sound. Not only that, it looks cool as hell when you crank the car up on a dusty road and it blows a big cloud of dust from underneath the car. SWEET!

If you turn them down at like a 45 degree towards one another it sounds even better and "Hot Rod" Magazine said that it will blow the dust in a little path out the back that way the car isnt getting extremely dirty.
