okay so i gather that you have a tungsten V6, but i would like to know what kind of exhaust are you looking at? Cut the pipe into a Y or go true duals. Cut the V6 bumper of replace it with a GT bumper?

And how much are you looking to spend?

Welcome to the forum btw

www.newtakeoff.com has good deals on take off GT bumper if you can't find any local GT guys who have taken theirs off for a body kit.

As for exhaust i recommend true duals. X or H, depends on what kind of sound you like coming from your exhaust

thx for the welcome guys. well yeah I'm looking to cut the y and install an H pipe and i guess the only thing left is the driver side pipes. I already have a set of GT mufflers and have one on right now. i really don't know how much they would charge just for that.

@Stangman Jonathan: im sure you meant he "can" lol. anyway, so I can just take it there and he would do the rest? like fab all the stuff there. and do you know how much he normally charges for that type of work?

yes he can lol


Umm I do not know, I think he's charging around $150 to put on my girlfriend's exhaust with minor cutting, not too bad at all and he does great work. Can even make you custom hangers like he did for my F150

Very easy. Most can do it. If not you can probably find a take off bumper in your color locally somewhere....
