Default Auto Couture / Shine Auto rear bumper with single exit?

Im trying to see if anyone has a AC style rear bumper with a single exit exhaust. Ive only seen it done with a vertex style rear.

Also If anyone has done any work on Shine auto bumpers, is there a specific material to use to keep it flexible when patching up a exhaust exit?

Any help will be awesome, thanks.

I dont think there is any way to keep it flexible since it is fiberglass only real way is to pretty much re-fiberglass the area shut and then primer it

Just use Evercoat fiberglass repair with the hair Matt not the string type . If you never done it let someone else handle it. It dosent have to be flexible it's rear bumper ! I think it should look good if done right

I know I have shine side skirts I'm surprised how flexible it is. But it is what it is and well the only way patching the exhaust hole is how you told him to.
