Then he changed the rear bumper as well. Look closely and you will see where the bumper is formed above the pipes. That was on the V8s only.

True but I doubt he would get a new bumper, but then again, you never know... My friend is in the process of putting a dual exhaust on his V6 and he has to cut the bumper...

I'm surprised the local police allow it. Most make you turn off most accent lighting while on the street.

Yeah that's probably coming. I personally have never seen it before so it's probably been around for years.

Once the police see it, yeah... Especially blue. I think you can't have blue exteriors.

Crap.
Guess I'll return mine.



On a more serious note.
That would be an equipment violation ticket, to the tune of more than $200.00 in the State of Wi.

That's too funny. Sadly enough I have seen worse mods on some c4s.

If they will just get rid of that hideous looking tail and do something retro along the 67-68, I might just pony up (no pun intended) and buy one. I dig the sequential turn signals, the curvature is just facing the wrong direction.

Well you have to draw the line somewhere. Unfortunately it's usually right after “ridiculous”...

A classy (but battle-worn) '95 C4 and a '06 Mustang convertible. Both great cars for different reasons.

Granted my '06 Stang is a V6 (but otherwise loaded), I must state that anybody who placed LEDs on the exhaust tips has reached a new level of "rice".

Please don't let the "V-TECH" crowd in my area see this mod - it's just the type of thing their herd mentality will make them want to copy.
