My latest mod

I don't tend to stop tinkering because of winter just slow down a bit. This will look better in the spring when it's all cleaned up and the tips are centered but hell at least it's done.

Why not, it's an SS and has a 2.4. Works for me. Besides this way no one can give me **** for looking like an SC or TC.

Looks good. Just never understand putting twin mufflers on a 4 cylinder.

Yeah, your car is just toooo busy on the back side now.

Stickers, badges, dual tips, and all it's just too much! Just my opinion

^This. It would look sexy if the badges, and triforce sticker were taken off. High rise would have to go as well.

Symmetry. I did the same thing to my Sunbird. I like the back end to look even, and it wasn't even with just one tailpipe so I put another one on lol. I'm fully aware that this does jack on a 4banger, but meh it looks better this way.

As for looking busy, yeah probably, but I like it. There's a lot of things I do that are not up to par with people's tastes, but I don't worry about it.

Alright did some tinkering with the mufflers so I could get both tips centered in each cutout. Looks much better now.




Left side:


Right side:

Looks nice man .... get rid of the decal, licence plate frame, and bowtie. It will look even sharper !!!

I like the 2.4 badge .... don't get rid of it.

my muffler guy said hed do a dual on mine for $200. hes good and can use some business right now. however it wouldnt look as clean as that, and having seen one in person who just cut the right size hole, i can appreciate all the work that went into the OP's dual. Look at the grill on the right hand side, looks like they did alot of work to get it to match the left one, having filled in the mesh spots and molded it and everything, and the bottom lip when cut leaves a hole in the side since its hollow, they needed to fiberglass or mold or whatever new plastic to the side of it and round it off and repaint it. Looks OEM. very nice work. Dual's may not serve a huge purpose on 4 bangers, and they do add weight, but on an SS/SC they definitly break up alot of the rasp and help it sound a bit deeper.

Maybe it was installed not long ago? Then maybe he cleaned them and its alot easier when its not stuck on their for months long.
