RE: rear bumper cut out pics
Even though I have the v6 bumper and think it looks great from the back, I suggest going with the GT/CS bumper. My biggest gripe with the v6 bumper is how the rear body line is too high compared to the front and side of the car. Also I hate the way the mufflers can be seen from the side. HOWEVER, the direct side view is the only view that looks odd, any other angle looks fine. It all depends on how much the high line in the rear bothers you. I can live with it for now, but the CS bumper is on my mod list.

Does anyone have the FRPP dual kit (m-5230-v6)? That kit comes with everything including the rear fascia trim pieces for the cutouts. I would be interested in seeing a pic of those on the car. Oh yeah, that kit also comes with the GTA mufllers.............of which, I think the 4" dia tips on those look pretty good (same as the ones on the Shelby GT).

Sweeet! Please do! I ordered this kit through my shop.. just waiting for it to come in. I was a little nervous about picking that one because i was not sure how hard it was to get. Looks like a really clean set-up. I can't wait to get it installed.

I pick up my kit tomorrow and once it's installed I will be posting pics & sound clips.

Tres used his own template in this link, but you cand see what he used to make the cut. After the cut, I would use a fine grit sand paper to make sure the edges are smooth, then use the touch up paint;

That is exactly why i went with the FRPP setup, i heard too many people having to weld their pypes kit on and I didnt want to do that.
Also I forgot to mention the dealership I got my kit from only charged me $580 for the FRPP kit.
