SVThis > I was curious about what you going to do with the rear bumper cover ... will you order a grround effects cover so that you don't have the tailpipe outlets anymore?

I was going to do something similar to what you are doing until I saw some comparisons against a good flowing catback setup (plus having MAC's makes it difficult to find a kit that will work without doing a lot of fabricating and welding).

For me, it was purely personal preference to keep the Borla catback, not the difference on power or weight because a good flowing catback will pretty much balance out, IMHO.

My suggestion would be to go ahead and do it. If you like it, you've got what you want. If not, you can always recoup a good part of your money. Again, good luck with your decisions.

I had it. It sounded awesome with my cam, but it killed clearance severely, and after a while, I didnt care for the look of it too much, and went back to a cat-back.

I had thought about getting the black and red two-tone rear bumper cover when I was thinking true duals. The balck is around the rear exhaust area. That would look nice, I think.
