Hi,

I'm new to the forums from the other side of the pond. I currently drive a 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 Classic w/ a 5.3L V8. I'm usually a GM guy, but am considering an '04 GT 5spd. I was just wondering if anyone has a pic of the underside of a stock GT. I'm looking to see how the stock exhaust is routed, and how I would be able to rig up a custom side exhaust. But... I just asked myself an interesting question. What do I do with the cutouts in the rear bumper?

A little info about the car in question:

Red '04 GT 5 speed. Grey cloth interior. 36,000 miles. They're asking $14,998. That's a red tag price. The car has been sitting on the lot for at least 60 days. I was thinking about offering $14,500. I can get about $1,500 over what I owe on the truck. That brings the price down to about $13,000. With no sales tax, and about 8% interest brings my monthly payment to about $270/mo. That's $100/mo. less than I'm paying for the truck. (More money for mods) Here is a like to where the car is: '04 GT It'll ask you print the page, just click cancel.

Any opinions would be appreciated. Thanks.

that sounds like a pretty fair price. You can get a V6 bumper to get rid of the slots in the rear. I think they make kits for the side-exhaust too.

If you want side exhaust, you can get the Roush side exhaust. I personally love it, and it does look good without all the other Roush parts if you want to avoid being a clone.

It would probably be a good thing to get a new bumper.You can see the top corner of the fender well is sticking out here:

Sounds a bit high I guess. I've seen 99/01 Cobras near that

Are those resonators or cats? They look like resonators to me, but I'm not sure. The resonators on my old '04 GTO looked like cats, and Midas and Meineke wouldn't touch them.
