Here's a pic so you can see what I'm talking about:

On top of that, if you've got subframe connectors, you really don't have enough clearance for pipes to exit there. I'm dropped ~1.5", and I have about 3" between the ground and the SFC. Even if you were only running a 2" pipe you'd scrape that on every bump and incline.

So I couldnt run it then cause my road is a hole. I scrape at stock height litterally. That and I'm not trying to look like a roush when I have a steeda
Maybe if I get IRS sometime or something I may try that

Honesty, I think the grill goes with it better. The honey comes need to be repainted black, either that or do the Roush grill delete combo! Also more pic!!! And no to the side exhaust.

^ive got a new grille its off of the roush bumper that came with it its just the same as the stock gt grille though.

same thing just now faded. i was half considering taking the pony out of it blacking out the ring and putting a steeda emblem in it but i think the blue would just look awkward.
any other ideas?

Yes, I think the stock grill looks the best with the bumper. Either that or the roush grill delete. The one with the bumper looks good.
