Default Cme???

Has anyone ever done the center mount exhaust on a camaro without the bumper support with it. Be thinking how it would look with just the tips centered without the extra bumper piece. How do you guys think it would look?

It looks like pure crap.

The reason the valence is there, besides the fact that it's supposed to help incorporate the tips more into the lower bumper, is to hide the exhaust piping leading into each side of the centered tip.

It basically just looks like the CME tip hanging there with ugly pipes on each side going back to the muffler.
