Default Rear Bumper

i have a question below the image...

with this body kit what are those two big holes for on each side? because the first time that i saw that i got an idea that it would be really cool to have dual square exhausts on each side filling those holes...

wow, your a freaking genius man, square peg in the square hole!!!

Dont bash the guy peeps! Paint the frame black put some grills and reroute the exhaust. Prep yourself to put a paycheck into that job though if you want it done right.

yea that would be a bad ___ idea but...you might want to think about the exhaust heat melting it unless you have a good plan for not melting it also the holes are kinda sunk in the bumper so you might get black stuff on it.. ya know what i mean

id think its a pretty cool idea, but yeah id just be worried about the clearance between the bumper and that structural piece and how you are going to route the exhausts

It's a cool idea, but I don't see it working. Like mentioned above, you can see the skeleton of the car, and it doesn't look like there is much room to work. I suggest, painting the visible silver part behind it black, and put some black mesh in there. Stick to the exhaust set up you have.
