direct bolt on?? no modification needed?

i dont see how you wouldnt have to modify the rear bumper for the tips to fit.

i personally wouldn't trust it, stick with tanabe, at least its name brand quality.

Description says it's a single 4.5" tip, so the picture is wrong.

Next, there is no such thing as a direct bolt on cat-back with no modification needed. At a minimum, you have to cut the exhaust directly after the catalytic converter.

Only way to do a straight bolt-on exhaust is a turbo/header-back, s-pipe/downpipe-back, or an axle-back exhaust.
