Default New nismo muffler, bumper tuck or no?

Title states it all, considering options before installing it....its a pretty shiny muff

I don't want you to tuck it so I can see it...

The Nismo S-Tune (if that's what the OP is asking about, rather than the OEM Nismo muffler) is already mostly visible w/o a bumper tuck, because it hangs lower and is angled differently:

I'm really not feeling the Nismo muffler/bumper tuck combo. It only looks good with true duals IMO. There's a pic of this setup in the bumper tuck pic thread. Good luck.
