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?

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.

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