I like the no spoiler look.

Since those exhaust tips are 100% identical to the fake ones, I'm sure you have pics to show how it was done. Can't wait to see 'em!

I'd have to agree that the exhaust loooks pretty fake, especially with that white tick in the middle. If it is real I'd like to know how the hatch pops, how you avoided the gas tank, how loud it is inside the car, and how you kept outside leakage from happening.

Rest of the car looks really clean though. No spoiler fits the car.

That last picture looks a little more real.

....as for how, yes, I'm curious. I respect the work, but I'm not really sure why you'd do that. It looks a litte out of place. I mean real or not people are gonna think it's fake because of the placement.

...none the less assuming it's real, my hat's off to ya for the effort. Sometimes ya gotta break the mold!

DUDE! the white tick is from the light reflection of the ground on the bottom of the chrome!!!!!

I Cut a hole in the bottom of my rear well ran the pipe strait down the right side of the car made a right at the well went strait over and up at the middle.

Welded metal over everything so now it looks like a big gas tank neck cover in the middle of my trunk.

Not recomended for t-top cars but other wise you dont loose much space...

I will get picks of all the inside stuff up soon.

I agree, the white tick looks like a reflection. That last pic looks a LOT more "real" than the first two.

You can tell it is real by the reflection. Someone would really have to be thinking to get it that good.

I'm just interested in seeing how he ran the pipes.

Different. Not bad.

I use it too and I'm saying that the picture doesn't prove anything one way or another.

I say it's real, but not because I use PS. I got a buck that says he's gonna post pics soon. Dude, you better post pics soon.

I don't know about you but I can put my hand on my pipes without fear of burning myself at all. I screw with my import friends all the time doing that.

I say its real, but isnt it elegal to have your exhaust up that high.
& is there any fumes going inside, I see a light coming out between tie two pipes which tells me that is not sealed.
Anyway I think it looks awesom
