Default Goofy fake pipes
Laughed all the way home. Not even firmly attached at the fender, not to mention totally fake looking. And, rear pipes as well!!! Nice!

Those aren't side pipes, they're flip up snorkels for going through fold/high water areas

totally agree - the fenders had huge oversized rectangular holes to accommodate the pipes to nowhere...

Maybe the handicap plate means something besides physical.

That is what I was thinking.
I say that everytime I see someone driving with that massive blue hangtag blocking half of their view through the windshield.

Notice how much faster this car is when you push the button. These do have cut outs for the side pipes. I would worry about the heat generated and paint damage or burns to the legs.
