OK, I know someone that will sell me a GT bumper for less than $100. I would have to have it painted, so that sucks a little.

I do like the looks of the V6 bumper with duals, but mine seem to sit lower. I know I could go back to the shop and ask them to raise them some, but so far I have not had any problems with rattles. Sooooo, if I switched out the bumper do you guys think it might hide the mufflers some? Or I just can save the $ on Louvers and paint them black???

This is what it looks like;

If you want hidden, check out a GT500 or GT/CS rear bumper

it's god-like

The GT bumper will hide the muffler alot. It looks much better. I understand the look of the v6 rear and dual exhaust, it has an old school look to it, but the GT bumper fits everything better over all. I would get it.

My philosphy was to put the entire GT appearance kit on, and then I could add extra stuff to make it look unique later.
