Ok... now to find out what rims to put on that baby...

Anyone know what company makes the quad exhausts?? Is it a cat-back system or just the muffler??

Default Explosion... almost RMM

Manny,

Don't you have the RMM kit? It looks very similar to the explosion kit. In fact I compared the RMM front bumper to the Explosion front bumper complements of a pal from Avanche (importer for Evolution). The RMM kit is urethane and not fiberglass like the Explosion kit.

I am having my RMM front bumper redone by a JT Autobody in Rosemead to become the Explosion-style...with PIAA 510s. According to Mikey at JT the process is easy. First we obtain a 4" flexible tubing from a hardware store. It will be used to guide the foglight's path of lighting. Sand it into shape of the contour of the inner bumper. Use epoxy to adhere. Cut out an opening. Use more epoxxy as filler. Get rid of the bracket molding that holds the factory light. Suspend the foglight on the lower reinforcement and you got Explosion!

TTE makes the quad pipes but they are muffler only. Actually remus makes it for TTE . Also they cost over 1k for them plus you would have to buy a cut out to make it fit the back of the bumper. If it wasn't for the cut out part i would of brought one.

If you had a win kit it would look good since the win kit has wide openings for the exhaust at the back of the bumper.

If still interested you can go to www.cecwheels.com to check them .
