WTF...

You know who to go to for this!

FVD makes one that is near OEM quality... albeit expensive.

You know if your going to do this right... it can be really expensive. My conversion was really just the exhaust, the bumper, and the heat shield. However, there are lots of little bits that are needed to actually finish the look. If you do this you might want to look at a Cup CF rear bumper as its cheaper, lighter, and I dont think you need a heat shield. GMG should be able to confirm this though.

If you want to go OE level quality I would go with either FVD or GMG and then get with someone like Suncoast for the bumper and all the correct pieces.

can you see if the guy you sold your stuff to wants to sell it to me? lol sounds like a 6k+ bill i probably won't be signing up for. The bumper is the cheap part.. i was hoping for something a little cheaper to route the exhaust.

FVD allows you to use high flow cats that you can get from them or someone else. Nice thing about the FVD system is that it retains the same exhaust geometry so the stock headers and cats or any tuner product can be swapped in.

I have seen a few other setups but they were all custom.

As far as I know GMG, FVD, and Fabspeed are the only show in town.

Well a custom job would be cheap if you know a good exhaust guy. Pretty sure the guy I sold the stuff to is hacking it up to go on his race car. He was anxious to get going on it so I bet it is too late now.

Oops realized I forgot one of the best ones

Cargraphic! They make one also.

They sell the separate retrofit (just the pipes) or a full kit.

You could go with Fabspeed, Cargraphic FVD or GMG. If you want to save money and utilize any mufflers (PSE, AWE,afterhours, OEM etc) you could go custom and just have the exhaust piping re-routed to the center by any legit muffler shop. I went that route as well as a few other guys.

I don't have a picture of mine without the bumper on, but it essentially looks like this:

The piping is pretty much identical to the FVD and cargraphic piping. I actually showed the muffler shop a picture of the FVD system and they just copied it for under 500.00 including tips.
