invisible exhaust?

[greganderson]

hi everyone,

im wanting to get a new back box however, my exhaust is actually behind the rear bumper and cant be seen unless you get underneath the car...

is there any way of cutting a whole in the bumper that would look neat?
i dont think there are any body specialists anywhere near me that can do it...

cheers in advance

I'm not 100% sure but the exhaust surround on the cupra bumper looks as if it could be removed so you could cut yours and add one?

hmm sounds good, you recon i could get one from a dealer?

You could get the lower valance from a Cupra (pre facelift), pop the bottom of your bumper off and pop the Cupra one on i'd suspect.

The valance is part of the bumper I think?

99.9% sure the rear valance pulls out of the bumper.
