What color is your cut bumper? I am looking for a Legend Lime V6 bumber, either cut or uncut for duals. Long story short my V6 rear was damaged and I dont want a GT takeoff.

How bad does it look with the empty opening on the driver's side? I've seen new Chargers that have openings on boths sides, but only one muffler. Since your car is a dark color, is it THAT noticable that the bumper is notched?
I know it's there, and that's what bugs me. Also, I've also seen how comments are made towards people with holes for two, but only one muffler. I don't want to be THAT guy with the one mufflerwith spaces for two. But the car is dark blue, which does make it slightly less noticeable. I'll post a pic soon.

Here's a pic. Sorry for the crappy quality. All I had at the moment was the cameraphone.

I installed dual magnaflows about 6 months ago and have had nothing but problems, especially rattling. First a weld broke on the passenger side muffler. Then the driver side wouldn't align correctly. Now it looks fine and all the welds are fine, but it constantly rattles! It seems like the only duals our car was made for is the GT takeoffs. Or maybe magnaflow just sucks. or maybe the THREE muffler shops I've taken it to all suck. Either way, there should be plenty of bumpers available on here in classifieds, just post that you need one.

Had the same problem all you guys are going through, but the problem is dont get a custom fabbed setup, get a full already done kit/system. Like the JBA kits or Magnaflow, thats the problem the custom fabbed setups seem to be a failure the kits that come with everything have already been through development stages and have been tested.

The bad part was that mine was a JBA system. It was dealer installed, and they and four other muffler shops couldn't pinpoint the problem.

As soon as my parts come in (Pypes True Dual System with GT takeoffs) I'll let you know how it turns out. I am comforted to know that the shop I am taking it to was recommended by my Ford dealership.

Which is weird , dont know why? You should have contacted JBA about the situation maybe you had a bad bent pipe or something to that effect.
