Bumper-exit exhuaust

I haven't been on here in a while. Working on a new project, I took my car to a friend of mine that owns and exhaust shop and told him I want to do to it. And he said it would be awesome so I went through with it. He's making me a custom axel-back exhaust that exist near the center of the bumper, both tips surround the left and right side of the lisc. plate. I will post pics after I get some body filler and fix the jagged edges that were cut out to fit the tips! Cant wait to see final product, will post pics asap!

Interested to see how this comes out...will either look sick or like complete crap. Why didnt you just go ahead and get a custom cat back?

indeed - interested to see as well.
I fear a misfortune to a perfectly good TL...
Specially since there are factory moldings for the regular exhaust - any chance you were going to cover those over?

Could look good as long as your car is kitted and dropped. Custom exhaust on a stock TL is going to look out of place.

Either way post pics!

I think it's best to hold opinions until it's seen.

Until then, photochop, anybody?

if it was a centre exhaust a la cayman, corvette, r32 etc i think it would look kinda cool. Again, holding final verdict till we see some real pics.
