Looking to replace my bumper next year. So I am looking for opinions. I am looking to keep the dual exhaust.

depends on what exhaust you have, both exhausts tips are space differently.

I have an aftermarket dual on mine. I will be redoing it when it comes time anyways.
Drove my neon until it was killed in a flood.

I voted SRT because I had my RT for so long and I'm kinda getting bored of it lol. If you decide to go RT, send the SRT bumper deal to me

SRT rear because it is clean, and won't make you look like a poser (unlike the front).

Could someone get me a side by side pic of both bumpers to compare?

If I could just figure out how to meld the Outback and the Neon into one car...

Plus the RT option has those ugly boobs on the bumper where as the SRT is just clean all around.

One thing to remember...to make a R/T bumper all you need is a lip kit. To do the SRT, you need that bumper itself (of course).

And also to get an SRT exhaust or modify your current one to extend out farther.

I do like the clean look of the srt. I like the sound of my muffler. So then, I can probably keep the muffler, remove the tips. Get srt tips and then just have the pipes moved to match with the cutouts.

If you do the bumbpr roll, you don't have to mess with the exhaust at all

I would do r/t only because if you go with an r/t you can do the rear lip kit with it.
