Thanks, and not that I know of. If it fits factory specs though I can tell you no. Also the openings have some very odd dimensions. At least with the F.I exhaust my ONLY option was using those ovals. Any quad tip that fit added an extra 11" almost of piping and there was no where to lose that distance without pretty much building a new system. You can see examples of this also in OKZ's thread. The first quads he put on stuck out pretty far.

Knowing I already had the proper exhaust coming I was looking for the cheapest way out for the time being, and I really didnt think it looked that bad.

On another note: has any one tried the Zele rear with the amuse quad tip exhaust?

looks great, but being built of 100% fiberglass is not worth it me. Been there, done that on a few cars, and they always fall apart. Needs to be stronger for the $, unless its a trailer bitch.

The bumper alone is probably around 1500 shipped not sure though exchange rates also make it vary.

This fiberglass is very, very well constructed. I have got out of the car to realise I had pushed into a parking curb and bent it inwards a few inches no cracks or breaks happened. It just flexed right back into position when I moved back. The side skirts have also held up well to hitting the top of speed bumps. Ya it has a couple scratches on the bottom bit not splits, cracks, breaks, etc. The price of being low and looking good!

Well then that's a good sign. I love this piece, just wish it wasn't sooooo expensive.....That's a lot for a rear bumper.... but damn sexy....

I've got the GTM SPec 3" Quad Ti Tip Exhaust System coming from the US to Austalia with my twin turbo kit so I need to get a Zele rear bar to fit the quad tips.. I was considering getting the rear bar cut and plastic welded to extend the arches, but LOVE the Zele rear bar..

QUESTION...

Is it a 'sin' to have just a rear bar and standard everywhere else..? I'd like to measure the Zele rear bar to make sure it won't hang any lower than the side (if anyone would like to help... hint, hint...) before going ahead with it..

Advice, opinions..?

Cheers guys..

From what I've seen.. I would say that the zele rear bumper sits a tad lower than the stock rear bumper. So it might look somewhat weird if you did zele rear and stock side skirts/front bumper. Soo... You should consider going zele front/side skirts/rear. Problem solved.

I was hoping to modify my FI exhaust with a clean quad tip solution, but just would not work out. I wound up building a custom exhaust to fit my Zele kit. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1371587883.477148.jpg

That looks pretty sweet! Zele done a great job on almost forcing you to buy their kit for everything to be perfect fit lol. Glad someone else couldnt make it work right either. People didnt want to believe me.

The custom exhaust was a huge PIA, but now that it's done, I am really happy with way it turned out and sounds great too. I was told early on that I could modify my FI and add quad tips--but nope, no go at all with the angle of the bumper.
