V6 Rear Bumper
I know the GT rear bumpers are readily available on different websites, but does anyone know where I can get a V6 takeoff bumper? I'm going back to a single setup, but I had the bumper cut for duals so I'm looking to get it replaced.

RE: V6 Rear Bumper
I was still having problems with pipes rattlingaround. I take clients out to lunch quite a bit and a couple have asked "what's wrong with your car". Pretty embarssing. I had JBA's with a Y pipe (which are now available), but I've had enough. I loaded up the stock parts and asked them to put it all back. On a positive note, I did ask if they had any GT mufflers laying aroundthat they could install (since they do a lot of custom work there),and they did install one for nothing. So it's now a single with a new GT takeoff. Actually sounds really nice. Also seems like it accelerates a little better.

I just ordered Pypes True Dual System with street legal x-pipe. I have two GT takeoff mufflers. I just hope I don't have rattle problems. The shop I'm taking it to was recommended by my Ford dealer. So hopefully they know what they are doing.
Speaking of rattles, I bought a 2004 E-350 a few years ago and it's been rattling since day one! I've taken it back to Ford 4 times and they haven't been able to fix it. I think I am going to take it to that muffler shop......maybe they can solve the problem. [&:]

RE: V6 Rear Bumper
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?
