Question About A Bumper Kit - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

GoWithTheFlow95 · 07-31-2017, 01:15 PM

Hey guys, so I'm about to purchase a Duraflex W-1 rear bumper kit and I want my FRS to look like the picture below. Right now I have stock exhaust, will I need to get a whole new exhaust system or just new exhaust tips?

If you can't tell, I'm new to cars so bare with me please.

From the looks of it, I would say a new custom axle-back exhaust would be needed at least. I don't think there are any options currently on the market that place the exhaust tips like that, hence why "custom" would be needed. Good luck with your build!

How would I go about doing that? I'm lost

I guess the cheapest way would be to weld 2 dual exhaust tips (like in the link below) to the stock exhaust exits. You'd need to install the bumper, source the tips, go to an exhaust shop and let them do the cutting, aligning and welding.

Pretty much how it was stated above. I would install the bumper first then go to an exhaust shop and have them weld one together. If it were me, I would try to have all the exhaust tips funnel back together so they are at least slightly functional instead of just welding exhaust tips onto other exhaust tips, but whatever floats your boat.
