thanks Joe for correcting me

and wow,,those pics of the actual IS-F exhaust is..hm..
let's say,,not that sexy,,,,
I wonder why they couldn't connect it all the way to the diffuser on the bumper
Uh yeah, - like Joe said, we had this discussion back in 2007... The next time you finish driving your car, take your hand and feel your exhaust tips. It might hurt a little, but you'll know first "hand" (sorry I couldn't resist) as to why they couldn't connect the actual exhaust tips to the bumper.

LMAO~~~
thanks Javy,,now I have 2nd degree burn on my right hand.....

I guess I didn't think it through,,for some reason, I thought that the heat
from the exhaust tip wouldn't or couldn't do anything to the bumper....

thanks for the explanation..now I know first "HAND" as to why they didn't connect the tips to the bumper..lol

Lets also throw in the fact that the exhaust moves with engine & transmission shifting, heavy launching, when the car turns, when you go over bumps... etc. etc..

I think you get the point..? !

That looks good! Is that from Porsche?

Maybe I can just get the IS-F rear bumper and exhaust tips defuser to get the IS-F look.

Isn't that Javy's car? (If I remember correctly... Joe Z had a hand in making his exhaust happen.)
And I believe he did take exhaust tips from the 911.

You will require an IS-F Rear Bumper.

srsly, i like the look of dual exhausts but I prefer center exhaust or single for anything under 8 cylinders.

no point in making a car heavier with a less efficient exhaust just to make it looks a tad bit prettier.

I prefer form follow function but I understand mass producers only look out for the masses.
