HP,
Keep in mind that most body kits (Brabus, S-mann, Breathless, etc) designed for the center dual exhausts thru the valance. I really hope that you will end up with more then 1 design.

Have you considered quad oval tips which are staggered (e.g. mercedes AMG tips)? Of course, must exit through valence

Just me...
Whereas I love the fact that my single DTH didn't require me to cut the lower valence.... to each his own.

One thing that will improve the tone of any smart exhaust system: 1 more cylinder!

leave it as is...

Mod your own rear kit to fit it as you wish.

Hell, I'd buy one before I even get the car... Price, please??

...something like a Honda V-65 (1100cc) motorcycle...GOBS of bottom-end torque. Begs to be run, at any speed...

It's actually a pretty small package, considering...

I picture a turbo in there. Somewhere. Someday.

I like the exhaust, i think the twin quad looks great, might look even better if the valance was colour coded.
