Side exit exhaust on a 98'
Side exit exhaust on a 98' I want to carry over some of the styling off the 2nd gen TA's onto my 98' and was wondering if anyone has ever put side exit exhaust on a newer fbody? Kinda like the 79's where it dumps behind the back wheels. I think it would look pretty neat on a newer fobody, and then maybe fill in the cutouts in the bumper so its nice in clean.
If this has been done before sorry for the question, I searched and didnt find anything. If someone has pics of one could you post them please?

I've come across a few rare pics but cant remember in what section...personally, I thought it looked like *** but its your car, do what makes you happy. I'd say you don't see a lot of it tho for a reason.

Thanks for the links. Im not wanting them dumped before the tire. Honestly im with ya on that one, I dont like that at all. If I did it I would dump it behind the back tire just like the 79's with the quad tips.

So basically this is what you're wanting to do?? I just don't know how you can do it to make it flow with the lines of the 4th gen, then filling in the exhaust gaps on the bumper, I think it would look odd with the TA rear bumper being just straight across. I'd almost put a Formula rear bumper on it and save yourself a ton of time and work. Maybe run a set of dual Corsa clone tips angled down on each side???

^^^ Yes, thats exactly what im talking about. I had thought about using a firebird bumper from a v6 since I figured it wouldnt have the duel cut outs in the bumper. Are the bumpers basically the same? I like the idea of using the corsa tips.
I've seen the dual chrome turndowns for far cheaper than the corsa clones... I'd assume once you get the firebird bumper, you can just cut down the exit pipes from your muffler and slip the tips on... should be an easy swap
