It's not so much the after install looks. I just find it funny to have one piece fiber and the rest Urethane. Fiber cracks easier and yellows faster from what I understand. So I just want the most durable. You will probably have it avail. by the time I can order anyway. Thanks for the answer.

No problem were all here to help each other. BTW I am looking for work...

On our car, we have them about 1/2" out from flush with the rear fascia. The tips on an SS are 4" diameter so they fill the opening ok and SS owners can get away with using their factory tips and simply having them extended from the mufflers by about 3"-4". On the V6 models, the tips are a lot smaller in diameter and would not look right in the larger opening so V6 owners really need to replace the tips with something with a larger outlet diameter to fill the opening nicely.
I will have to see if my MBRP Exhaust will extend that far. It certainly has a big enough diameter. is the 3" and the tips are at least 4 1/2" in diameter I will have to measure to make sure before I order if an when I can.


The front fascia still has vents right with a mesh behind them?

Thanks for all the answers. I think this kit would look awesome on my ABM.
