The heartache of an appearance choice


SO, I have comtimplated this over n over and I am in love with the Stalker S Style (saleen rip off) body kit.. i am totally not all for this tho since i paid alot! and i mean ALOT for my side exhaust and i will have to switch to rear exit exhaust... witch kinda sucks.. i was wondering if there is a way to do it myself and if anyone has had experience with fabrication.. i was thinking i can put a patch in the rear exit spaces for the pipes and make it look like it belongs and remove a piece of the side skirts.. i have no idea what it is like to deal with urethrane i was wondering what the difference specifically is in the fiber glass and urethrane.. if its anything like fiberglass i can easily fab. it by myself... thanks for the help..

I got the Spintech Side Exhaust cat back.. its a beastly sound inside and outside i msut say.. i like the unique idea of side exhaust but a body kit looks better lol i need to know the diff in fiber glass an urethrane before i buy a kit and try to fabricate it.. iam pretty handy with fiber glass but urethrane is a whole new ball game..

yeah i did alil research and supposedly the utherane can handle the pressure of hitting the ground.. it has a flex to it that keep it from cracking like fiberglass.. but since i dont plan on hitting anything lol... i mean my whole car is made up of fiberglass why not the body kit =/

urethane is a bitch to mess with. Get the kit but go with the saleen center exhaust rear bumper. It will look ok with no exhaust. The the hole in the saleen side skirts are pretty big you could probably get a tip to fit or just cut out a bit before you paint it.

yeah i was thinking about how its supposed to be able to flex if you hit a freakin curb and not break.. so cutting it easily will not be easy at all =(

the center exhaust bumper is like 500+ dollars =( not only will i have blown 600 on side exhaust but 500 on a dang bumper! WAAAAAAAH

True umm you could take the tips off and hide the exhaust and hang some trick pipes out the back.
