That is not a firebird/formula rear bumper. Thats a t/a bumper.

I like the longer magnaflow tips since you can see the tips from the side since the formy bumper is less bulky



edit: also wouldn't mind the dual/dual magna flow tips (dad has them on his t/a and they look awesome)

Yeah, I think the magnaflows might be the best looking on the Formula. I only wish the ends were cut at more of an angle.

I don't think the dual magnaflows would look that great on a Formula. Directly from the back, yes, but from the side no, since you'll be able to tell where the single pipe turns into two. I hate seeing that. This is why I htink it's harder to put good looking tips on a Formula, the bumper shows off so much of it while the TA bumper hides all but the outlets.

^^ Those B&B? I've always really liked those tips.

And great looking Formlua, I really like your choice of wheels (I run Speedlines on mine too!)

Thankyou.

I cut the B&Bs down a little because they were sticking out past the bumper.
I prefered them tucked in a little bit. I think the B&Bs go over well on a Formula.

I'm really happy with the Speedlines too.

I'm all about substance, not style. But I have to disagree with you on this point.

Even though these cars have fake dual exhaust, they still deserve dual tailpipes, even with the Formula bumper.

Although performance is likely better with single outlet, somehow it just looks all wrong. No offense intended.

Not a flattering picture, needs polishing and all that fun stuff.

SLP dual slash cut tips. Would love to run some corsa clones for a little bit of depth on the tips, maybe later on. It's a V6 but from the outside just sitting there not many would know.

I like the Corsa tips as well.

I like the color of your Firebird, not something you see everyday.
Looks real clean too.
