Default CME exh on a Bird

So I miss my SS with the CME 6LE exh tips. I might be getting a 95 TA soon to play with and I've got the idea of making it work on this TA. To me this is the coolest exh on an Fbod. I know there are challenges and I think I could make it all work without making it look like a rig!

Anyone done this?

If you could do it like the current cts v center echaust with the polished section around it then it could be good.

No doubt there are some challenges but with all our mods there is always a challenge. I would rather do this to my LT1 than to over mod my LS1s ws6. Plan would be center exh just not 100% sure it would be the CME tips or two big nice tips or one fat one. Biggest thing is to get the bumper to fit/look right, then do the exh tips. For sure I'll be using the lower valance. for the holes. Lots of ideas. Just wanted to know if anyone did it.

Maybe take a Firebird rear bumper and cut around the bumper around the midline. Take a Camaro bumper and do the same and plastic weld the piece together so you'll have a Firebird/Camaro hybrid. Then you'll be able to add the CME and its valance.
