It was time to make a new exhaust, so I got a little creative.  Using some 2 1/2" exhaust pipe, a slightly used catco high flow cat, a cherry bomb muffler, and a 6 pack of coors light, I had a new exhaust.  I tried to make it as high as possible for more ground clearance...I don't think I could get it much higher than this...

Nice looking exit, I would never even think about looking for it there. Thats very nice. I cant do it to mine though since I have the bumper trim and it attaches to the bumper cover with holes.

Looks sweet, but I would be afraid of it melting the plastic

That looks soooo sweeeettt!!!!!!!!! I wish I could do that but I got that bumper trim stuff and I dont have the stuff to fab it up like that. Could you take a video/soundclip of that? It would be awesome to hear it.

Lenny all you would need to do is buy a tip (if you choose to do that), then get an idea where you want it to come out the make a mark with a sharpie. Now take a compass (I think thats what they call it you used one in school to make circles probably). Next take a hole saw (fits on a drill, it has the drill bit in the center and a round outer part thats a saw), now saw the hole about a 1/16 th of an inch bigger than the tip or bigger depending on how much room you want there to be around the tip. I help a buddy of mine do this on his truck which is just like your truck. The only thing we did different is we had taken all the body trim off already. In you case if you wanted to leave the trim you could just make the outlet closer to the wheel opening (forward and lower slightly). The only thing is you might have to use a tip that is smaller just an idea. Zach 

Oh, almost forgot I think now not 100% sure but I think we either moved or slightly modified the last hanger for the exhaust.

looks pretty awesome, nice idea!  I wanna run a custom dual exhaust, straight pipes down the body, and put a nice x pipe where the spare tire was...I'm not entirely sure it would work, but I've got a ton of room where that tire was back there, I feel like I should use it!

Pretty sweet setup man! You have any problems with burning the plastic at all? What about the sound, how does it sound???

Any followups on whether or not it discolored/melted the plastic?
