It actually looks clean huh? The sound ton of the exhaust was real soft (no rice). I couldn't even hear it over my rental car 07 maxima se. Btw i got hit a couple days ago hence the rental. :cry:

I think the best example of Gen 2 with dual exhaust is Mike T's Solara, it looks really nice.

This Solara:Image
just looks horrible, the exhaust holes looks like something was jammed up in it forcibly and made the holes bigger.

Geezes... why ever try to do this if you can't do it right? :roll:

Tips are off-center and look way to low - should be molded up into the bumper shirting more to look right.

The Gen 2 look wasn't designed for dual tips int he first place and the original single tip is actually a little to low as it is.

If I keep mine long enough, I may actually try to modify it to be right... like this:

But this will take modifications to the mounts as well as the rear bumper, but will look a lot cleaner in the end. (pun intended) ;)

^^I'd like it more if the tips were closer to the sides and not the cneter. Aka, move the exhaust tips farther outward.

Actually, I'd like to get the up a little higher than that even, but would have to look all around and get the best fit. Don't want have the muffler actually touching the frame or anything. ;)

pxl you have a beautiful car. but I do believe that rear exhaust would slaughter it unless you moved the tips more outward. They just look too narrow like that. Do you see how they are between the tailights? I think they need to be "inside" the tailights. Make sense? If they each moved outward about 6" (real life, not photo sized) it would be perfect.

Anyone else understand/agree?

I double commented, because I think it would make our cars look really mean, assuming you also have the SE Sport Lip kit.

^^ Have you even looked under your car at all?

Unless you somehow relocate your muffler further up-stream in the system that's not gonna happen! :roll:
