I have a dual exhaust set-up I am gonna install. But before I do I need a rear bumper. Want something aftermarket, so please no telling me to cut and mod up the factory. Thanks again!

 

i might be wrong but i dont think so, i dont think there are any aftermarket bumpers that already have spaces for dual exhaust which means no matter what bumper you get your gunna have to cut and mod it, sorry i had to tell ya cause its the truth

 

Damn it! There has to be one out there. Either way I am gonna go aftermarket though. Want to change up most all the exterior pieces possible at this point.

 

there are a few JDM peices I beleive - no name comes to the top of the min dof hand - sorry, i know that's no help - but for the most part - yeah - you probably will have to mod something whether it's OEM or not

 

only ones i could find:

"veilside style" rear lip:


erebuni "racing style v2.0" rear lip:


heres the exact sites:

imo, these rear bumpers are cheaply made and probably requires extensive modification in order to fit. but thats just my opinion.

 

That second one will require filling the plate space, the first one looks like the car got forcibly mated with a toyota matrix front bumper.

 

Just cut the stock..I got mine dead on and my dual exhaust looks sexy if i do say so myself. Gimme a few minutes and Ill post up a dark picture...

 

only prob with cutting the stock peice is, unless you graft in an OEM molded exhaust section into the driver side - it just looks like you cut an exhaust opening. :eck

 

what do you mean? where the stock hole is and how the plastic is slightly thicker? If you fill up the hole with a nice tip like you should anyways, one can barely tell. You can always take a bit of fiberglass and make it thicker if it bothers you that much. To each his own though.
Both the rears that are available with dual exhaust look like butt. You either custom fab one or cut your stock one.

 

yeah yeah yeah - if you do it RIGHT - it'll look fine ... but being a realist - i know most wont do it RIGHT - they'll go 1/2 way and call it 'good enough'. If you WILL do it RIGHT - then go ahead - just cut it. Just do everyone a favor and don't make it obvious - cut it small and file it out perfect if you have to!

 

I origonally just cut the stock one with a jig saw (tape some kind of cloth to bottom of saw so not to scratch the paint). It looked ok, but you could see that one did not have a lip around the opening. To get the new opening to math the stock one, you will need someone who does plastic welding to make the inside lip for you. I could not find anyone in my area to do it.

I've got the kenstyle lip kit now (the knock off fiberglass one) and made the opening myself. Fiberglass is much easier to work with than abs plastic.

Good luck with the mod! Twice pipes rule![/img]

 

where di ya get that bumper and how much

 

Just go for it!!! measure twice cut once!

 

Morningman, the kenstyle kit came from Scion Evolution "members deals". They have great deals on scion parts for club members. Joining is real easy and the dues more than paid for itself with first purchase. Check it out.

I have this bumper. The holes on both sides are more than ample for exhaust. I just happen to have a setup that runs in the middle. You can also do the same thing though. The kit is AndysAutoSport.com full octane kit. Im actually getting rid of my front bumper from the kit so order the back and hit me up for the front....
