It will look dumb with the stock rear bumper, and the pipes missing. He needs a new one with that area filled in.

C2's and C3's look good with side pipes. These holes in the side of the car look weird-maybe someone should go for real weird and add a set of ZOOMIES.

I think it looks a hell of a lot better than half the aftermarket exhaust systems people are running with exhaust tips that stick out 4 inches past the rear bumper looking like a cross between a honda civic exhaust and F-16 afterburner. Good on ya for doing something different!
