MOST people add the type-s aspec kit, which ALLOWS quad tips.
to add the aspec lip, you need to cut, but the cuts are hidden by the lip

if you cut without adding the lip, its going to look really really bad....
unless you can find a way to cover the cuts with like some trim?

^I've always wondered if the type-s exhaust trim would fit if the cut was obviously perfect!?


Op- below is a link to a DIY, for what Justin said above...

I used a dremel to widen the exhaust openings and than installed a Type-S rear ASPEC lip over the bumper to hide the cut up rear bumper.
