I just got the same exhaust delivered to my house. Installing it Friday. I have a question for you. Does the end of the muffler/tailpipe stop before the ground fx opening begins? It looks set back in the pictures. My concern is the heat from the exhaust blowing/rising onto the plastic groung fx, causing paint problems like bubbling or melting.

It will cook the bumper. Cheap engineering. Beware for sure.

Chris can you further explain this? it will cook the bumper as-is in the pics or if the tailpipe ended prior to the gfx bezel?

(cause that's your [Borla] exhaust)

For reference, the depth of the GFX bezel is 5" (measured from center line @ bottom). The depth from the outside edge of the bezel to the end of the Borla pipe is 2.25", thus the Borla pipe extends into the GFX bezel 2.75". The length of the final straight segment of pipe (from final hanger to end) is 8"
