BRZ With Center Exhaust

Just wondering if anybody has, or has seen, a BRZ with a center-mounted exhaust setup. I've only seen this photo of one from Japan, some kind of aftermarket display. Not even sure if it went into production, but IMHO it looks really mean. Aside from replacing the rear bumper, what else would be involved in such a setup? Would it be worth it?

That pic looks photo shopped to me.
Specifically the reflections (or lack there of) around the re-located reverse/fog lights

The center dual exhuast looks great on the Cayman, but the one in the OP looks too big. Not only that, but it's tapered out. Reminds of a loudspeaker.

Wow, that looks nice. I wonder what the total cost of that would be, with exhaust and bumper? Thanks for the link.

Rear Bumper in FRP is $886.00 + shipping unpainted from Japan. And if I got it right looks like they want $1773/1900 + shipping for the the exhaust.

LOL, this is one of the most awkwardly routed exhaust pipes I've seen. Right up there with the HKS Legamax Sports:

Cool, I want to hear it in person sometime at one of the local meets! I'm sure it sounds awesome, I just imagine that curly circle around piping can't be good for flow.

I want to hear it in person sometime too! I have a lot of parts that I'm not putting on my car til next autoX season. I want to do a season completely stock and learn the car before i add stuff.

Saw a picture today where someone kept the stock bumper and replaced the 3rd brake light (triangle) with 2 small exhaust tips
