If you do choose to do it you might want to check out these. they might add a nice touch, clean it up a little.

vibrant did that to have people avoiding cutting their bumper and had it sit lower enough to avoid the bumper resting on it

Thanks 2003sxtneon, i have been looking for something like that. I know the vibrant did it to make it so it wouldnt touch the bumper, but ive seen other neon exhausts make it flush with the bumper just fine without having to see all the weird pipes come hanging way down, its rediculous, if maaco, the bodyshop can do the cut outs, ill keep the exhaust, as long as it looks a little better from the back and looks more natural, ill be happy, i wanna thank you guys again for putting your input in, it helps me alot in all my decision making.

P/S: Rims getting put on tomorrow, cant fricken wait guys, ill put pics up of them asap tomorrow! Alrite i getta back to class, later!

get yourself a carbon fiber hood, and a couple other carbon fiber things and it will all come together nicely. thats what i was going to do.(cut out my own exhaust cut outs) If you try to do it, i would also try using one of those saws that you cut pvc with. since your going to be cutting plastic anyway, i think it will give it the best overall look. and i know it was mentioned before, but some of the bumpers if you look underneath they have the two cut outs there already just not cut out. follow those and your good. sorry so long

haha yeah i guess usin a sawsall is kinda difficult. A hacksaw blade should work fine, but like mike said, make sure that everything is marked out just the way you want it. Just outta curiosity whats the diffrence in sound between the magnaflow and the vibrant?

haha, a "viola" is an instrument similar to the violin--i think you were going for "voilĂ*"
