Default Smooth bumper for a T/A?

Does anybody make a rear bumper for 98-02 Trans Ams that doesn't have the exhaust cut outs? I have TSP true duals and I think it looks kind of goofy now with no exhaust tips. I tried a search but couldn't find anything. TIA

But would it look right with the T/A ground effects (rocker panels)?

Should have got a Formula.

Or, run it out the back to tips like i'm doing (i'll get around to it, someday...).

i have the TSP duals. with my bumper painted CETA style, it doesn't look odd at all. i do agree it looks very wierd on a T/A without a CETA bumper. i know somebody with just a bullet on his y, and the bumper looks empty without tips or CETA

^^^^ I thought about that, but you can see the dumps from behind the car. It might look kind of strange from the back, seeing tips and dumps. I've also thought about painting my bumper CETA style but I can't decide. Any thoughts? My car is pewter by the way.

Pewter looks awesome with the black CETA. I say you do that and the dumps. The rear will still look sexy
