so i have decided to ditch the idea of the rear black foggies for a sec as i havejust purchased a rear bumper for the XR5 LV....yes LV
i figured it looks so much better than the LT bumper and the grey inserts would look good against the silver exterior. should arrive in 2-4 weeks  i should get someone to photoshop it on for me too while im at it. arrival of XR5 T spoiler and LED rear tail lights are on their way |

Will it fit? I heard the mounting points are different, on the rear bar, so you may need to modify it.

 sorry all i need to do now is look for aftermarket foggies for the XR5 bumper now haha hope there are some out there! iv been in contact with rob herrod and we are going to get an exhaust done in the next 2 weeks. he currently ran a system on an XR5T and is looking at doing the exact set-up on mine. obviously with dual tips.....to fill the big holes in the rear XR5 bar

Im very impressed, this will make the car look just that little bit sportier and 'mean'. As for the dual exhaust, it will look sweet, especially if you will have a power package to go with it!!!
Looking forward to seeing results! |

how exactly are you gonna do the exhaust?? I knotice the turbo models have removed the spare wheel well to make room for the muffler underneah leading to the twin exhausts. This will make it very difficult to install the same exhaust from the turbo.
