Default GMMG, CME and Blended Rear Valence from 6LE

Well, I got all of my new exhaust and appearance mods installed

The rear valence and tips are from 6LE designs and I chose to have the valence blended into the rear bumper. One of my local friends installed the exhaust for me and he done an excellent job. I went from dumped duals with one chambers to this setup. The catted y, gmmg and cme is much quieter/more refined than the duals and that is what I was going for. I can cruise now without every plastic piece in the car rattling, lol. It still sounds great when I get in the throttle though.

Very clean! Did your friend make the 90* bends for you, or did you order them from somewhere?

Thanks.

I got them from SLP, but they had to be cut down significantly and the ends had to be swelled to work.

That is good to know! I would love to have this as well for mine. I have True Duals right now and it sounds awesome. I just love the look of CME.

Which ones did you get? The exhaust shop I go to doesn't have stainless or a mandrel bender.

They have 90* bends that connect to LM systems and SLP quad tips but idk how the quad tips compare to 6L, since I have their double d style tips. Idk have anLM system so it shouldnt be an modifications there.

Did the have to be swelled to fit the tips too? I can tell they needed to be to mate with the GMMG. If so, how much?

Yup, they had them on clearance at the end of the year last year. I bought two drivers side elbows for the quad exhaust for a Z28 because they had more material than the passenger side. They were $20 each I believe and they are stainless. I loved my duals but at regular cruising speeds you couldn't stay in the car long because of drone and the rattles. At WOT, nothing beats them.

I believe they were for the quad exhaust for a Z28. I had them swelled just enough so that they slid into the cme tips snugly. The reason we chose to do it this way is it offered more left to right adjustability. If they were swelled so that the elbows slipped over the tips, the tips would in turn have less room to move side to side. I believe the elbows were 2 1/4" piping.

That looks awesome! Your exhaust setup looks very clean on the under side of the car as well. I have never seen the blended valence before, but I think it looks 100% better than not having it blended. It's Sweet!
