Exhaust Cover (for single side exhaust)

I know FT-86 Factory sells them and has a couple of pictures, anyone else have their own personal pictures of these?
Really trying to justify spending 60$+ on a cover

Was the fitment alright? Some people said there's a bit of a gap and it can be bothersome to the eyes.

Actually thought it was fitment was pretty good, but you gotta line it up right. I actually messed up the alignment the first time (you have to drill 3 holes). It was close, but you could tell the gap was a bit weird and wasn't aligned to the curves of the bumper perfectly.

I ended up just removing one of the screws, then adjusting it a bit, and using some 3M VHB double sided tape in place of the 3rd screw, aligned perfect. There's obviously still the small gap that you see in the pic surrounding the piece but it's basically flush and curves exactly as it should with the rear bumper piece. I was perfectly happy with it, showed it to a few of my friends and they said if I didn't point it out, they wouldn't have noticed it.

Ah, drilling is required. Hm. Maybe I'll do likewise if I end up getting it and try using a mixture of screws and 3m. Thanks for all the info!
Still open to see more pics from anyone else .

Same price as $65.00, fitment is a tad bit nicer. Have both right and left side covers too.👍

Bought mine from innovated dynamics

Came with free carbon fiber plaque, which looks bad ass


Fitment is great no issues

Here are a few images I have of mine installed on the car (note - it does require drilling three self-tapping holes into the bumper cut-out to hold it in, and it was about $100 shipped to my door from Japan)
Damn thats nice.
