Default Rear Bumber

Of those who have dual exhaust, how many people have a gt bumber? Pics would help Trying to decide wether to cut out hole or just buy the bumber. I dont want to look like crap, so I will probably just buy one.

How hard was it to install? Just an afternoon job? Second did you have the exhaust done or did you do that yourself? If so do es the old exhaust come apart fairly easy or did you have to cut it off?

It takes about an hour to install... the hardest part is transferring the wire bracket from your old bumper to the new one. Just drill out the rivets & replace them with new ones on the new bumper. There are instructions at the top of this page. Just follow them & you will be fine.

I just got my duals on a couple days ago and they did the cut out for me. it looks pretty good. but i will probably upgrade to a gt bumper.

Personally I like the V6 bumper better and think the cut-outs look just fine... but then again i favor the single exhuast...LOL!

go with the GT bumper... cut outs look just a little out of place in my opinion... i went with the gt bumper. i think it makes the back end look cleaner
