ROAD/RACE- 08 Center Exhaust
#31
Here's a "Microsoft Paint" (as opposed to Photoshop) of my car to get an idea of how this would look on an '08. Of course, this isn't a lip. It's just the stock bumper with a repositioned hole...but you wouldn't want me to draw a lip on there. It would look a lot less believable.
Anyway, I think it looks freakin' awesome.
MAKE IT RIGHT NOW RRM!
The design of the lip could be a deal breaker though...go easy on the lip.

From what RRM said about their exhaust experiments, a straight exhaust with no bends would lead to a loss of lowend power (and gains at high-RPM levels).

yeah this is starting to grow on me now that i have seen it. i think i like it more on the 02-03 with the tips spaced farther away from eachother with maybe some bigger tips too. im wondering what kinda muffler will be used though, a dual exhaust muffler or a single just with a y pipe?

it would be a good idea as long as there isn't some stupid huge tips on it. All you need is the same sized tip as the muffler outlet, or a tiny bit bigger, anything else make that ugly fart can sound IMHO.

this idea is not bad as long as theres a power increase and it sounds nice. since it requires a redesigned rear bumper, i think the looks of the bumper will matter too. RRM, do you have any ideas on the rear?
i am thinking of buying an aftermarket body kit, will it still work?

as for an aftermarket body kit, it will depend on the kit and if the exhaust will clear it and the design of the kit. the idea is to buy the exhaust and lip combo for people who are keeping the stock bumper which is most of us. if you are getting a body kit then this one probably isn't for you.
