exhaust or bumper mod? [poll] - Toyota Yaris Forums

cali yaris · 01-05-2010, 02:23 PM

I'm changing out my rear bumper. This means I have to (1) modify the new bumper for my center-exit exhaust (more work and more money I don't have right now) or (2) modify the exhaust back over to the right-side exit (stock position).

What say you?

Kaotic Lazagna · 01-05-2010, 02:30 PM

Which rear bumper are you getting? If there is no pre-cut out on the right side, I'd say stick with the center-exit (I might be bias, lol), and cut out the middle yourself. If there's a pre-cut out already, then you can always cut out the driver-side and do and dual tip (smaller tips, not those huge tips).

which do you like? I like the center exit and does it have to be done now? I'd say hold off and save for the mod to the bumper.

Sell the bumper ,

and get one that suit the centre exit .
or keep the rear bumper and put on the rear skirt i want

cali yaris · 01-05-2010, 06:21 PM

yeah the problem is that all the aftermarket bumpers have a pre-cut hole on the right side. So not only does that have to be covered, a new hole has to be fabricated and finished for the center exhaust.

Ray, the lip you're talking about is some custom work, which I'm trying to minimize if possible.

I'll probably just move the exhaust for now, depends on downtime and cost. keep the votes coming, what people think does make a difference.

Hey Garm, just go for this look!

Weight savings ftw!!!

Jerkratt · 01-05-2010, 08:08 PM

cone sells a cap off for there bumpers.... that covers the right side exhaust exit

I gotta say I'm a fan of one-sided exhausts.

yaris2010RS · 01-05-2010, 11:45 PM

naw man, all about under the drivers and passenger door exhausts, that is the shit, lol

on a realistic note i personally like dual tip for normal applications but center if its built into the bumper. kinda like acura built in the dual tip into the corners, looks sick!!

Kaotic Lazagna · 01-07-2010, 02:38 AM

Here you go, Garm:

Kaotic Lazagna · 01-07-2010, 02:42 AM

On a more serious note, how about something like this (picture it without the rear lip):

yaris2010RS · 01-07-2010, 02:42 AM

yes man, put that on a fucking yaris

you will be GOD!!

yaris2010RS · 01-07-2010, 02:45 AM

okay man, chill, lol, i was replying that to the first pic, its all about the first pic man, lol

but yes, on a realistic note second pic is nice. dont do a center exhaust like BMW did in the older 80's cars. that was awkward looking..... it was litterally some random pipe sticking out about 2 inches below the rear bumper (and usually not in the center)

Kaotic Lazagna · 01-07-2010, 04:29 AM

LOL. Figured you were referring to the LFA exhaust.

But yeah, Garm and I both have center-exit exhaust right now. Both look good. As for the BMW 2002, not sure what they were thinking when they made it a center, but not so center-exit. LOL

toyo · 01-07-2010, 10:21 PM

center FTW

DerFlosser · 01-19-2010, 02:09 PM

I really like center exit exhaust. It would be awesome if there was a nice system for the yaris (Maybe Garm can take on yet ANOTHER project!).

Red Horse · 01-19-2010, 08:27 PM

Very noticiable center exit exhaust

cali yaris · 01-19-2010, 08:35 PM

holy rear end, Batman.

Thanks everyone for the valuable input.

I am going with right side exhaust, for now. 3" downpipe-back, with a Vibrant muffler.
