GT bumpers installed
Hey all, just got my GT kit installed. It took 3+ hours in labor to fit the Magnaflow exhaust into the cutouts. But the $250 it cost me is worth it since it looks good. These pics are from the shop, will get better ones posted later on.

RE: GT bumpers installed
thanks hamidlmt!
Got a question for you. You have an original GT bumper? Did you have any issues with your JBA exhaust. I had to have a couple bends done to my Magnaflow to make them fit right in the bumper cutouts. That plus 3 hours labor, cost me close to $300 to have done. Not real happy about that!

RE: GT bumpers installed
I do have an original GT bumper. The only problem I have with the jba exhaust is that the driver side pips sits just a wee bit lower than the passenger side. You can really only tell if you're looking at it straight on from bumper level. Still, I may have my shop work on it next time I'm in. Darn... sorry about the added expense of the those bends! But, it looks great!

RE: GT bumpers installed
i see the rear bumper as a waste, you can get it professionally cut to fit your pipes for like 20 bux, verses 220 for a whole new bumper, and thats 200 more i can put towards a CAI, or other things
