there must be somewhere to buy the cap for the cutout in the bumper. I had a 3kgt vr4 and they sold a cap for it. I just dont think imports need duals, its not like were driving mustangs, any true car fan who sees one muffler instaed of two

its your world, dude....but imo i dont think a "big" exhaust will look right on a CL unless you have quite a few other agressive exterior mods to go along.

i know of a few places that sell the cap for the cutout, i'm going to measure the opening and see if i can get one as close as possible, then mold and paint it.
Are there any rear bumpers that dont have cutouts?

Going from dual to single muffler is a huge downgrade. While your at it, take off your wheels and replace them with some 15's with some sweet hubcaps.

Nope nope nope.... you are taking away from the agressive touch to the "Luxury Sport" appearance. I think the dual exhausts look nice on the CL, even if they are joined Via Y pipe, especially when the bumper has the cut outs for them, now on the 6th gen accord they don't really look right because they are just there with no bumper surround.

i guess its the american way to have something thats looks good but is useless.
I go to japan once a year to see family, all my friends there laugh at all these imports with duals. No import ever needs dual exhaust! Supra, skyline, rx7, chaser, gto = single exhaust. If a 1000hp skyline doesnt need duals, neither do i

V8's need to equilize the pressure between the two sides of the head thats why they run duals. Even though there are SS camaros even that use one muffler

i'll take some pictures when i finish it, i'm going with apexi n1 gunmetal out the right side. If I run mandrel 2.5" w/o resonator, will it be way too loud? Should i leave the resonator in there?
