    On removal the paint peeled! That' how good 3M tape is!

    I'll stick a Black one on it, plus the silver one split too not happy!

    I'm tempted to sticker bomb the top of the rear bumper now, thoughts?
    When I get a new exhaust I'll opt for a single exit and change to a fwd bumper as twins are sort of lying aren't they?

    I did a DIY job on mine. Took the back section off, cut a hole in the left box and added a 3" length of pipe (then did the other side to match) Then cleaned it up and used some black heat paint to protect it


    Then a couple of slash cut 3" shiny tips
