Actually, I do like the bumperettes, painted or not. And I also think that the diffusers look good on cars with the non-dual exhaust tip.

I think the twin pipes just finish the look off. The rear diffuser looks great with single or twin pipe. As far as bumperettes go, im happy no one uses them except in the N-America.

Coincidencly my car is a US build. Has no bumperettes and no holes either.

Cheers Steven.

Djomlas,

Here's a shot of the twin pipes I was talking about. This is my 2001. Not the best picture but it will give you the idea. Take care,

Mike

NickCats,

Thanks, it is actually a Porsche Sports Exhaust, the early version not the most recent model that they sell. It's the one that has the valves to open and close depending on the level of sound that you want (although I didn't hook that feature up, I like it on full sound the whole time!) Take care,

Mike

Yeah, its a little low but its grown on me as I like it like that as you can see the pipes running parallel to the ground. I had it installed by Ruf in Dallas and that was the first thing I noticed, but that was the best they were able to get it adjusted.
