Tho Im personally not a fan of that bumper, Im glad you took your time on it. Theres nothing worse then a part thrown on and it doesnt match up.

Good job, now get some paint on that puppy

Non painted parts is the 2nd worse thing lol. Congrats!!!

i already got the muffler. im working on getting the cut outs done for it to fit

Hmm - don't cut it out. Use the hole in the middle to install the muffler there.
If you cut something out - you destroy the shape/overall impression of the bumper.

they make the exhaust that will work for the bumper. I don't know what it's called, but please don't cut the bumper.

The JT tip is the only one that will look good in there, I have seen many people use something else, it looks horrid.

Sell the muffler, and get the JT tip. You will be much happier with the clean look. And, no modifiying the bumper is a huge plus!

you don't get much different than an exhaust set up like that.
