Folding center section of OEM rear bumper (single exhaust)
I know I have seen pics of this before but I searched and couldn't find them. If possible, please post up pics and a DIY how you did this. For those who may be confused what I am talking about, this is a way to eliminate the awkward look of 2 exhaust cut-outs with a single exhaust.

If anyone else has done it I would love to see more pics.

you will use your left arm to bend up the middle section and with your right and a screw attached to the tip of your drill, screw it to the rear aluminum reinforcement bar.
follow the last step a couple of times (screws)... then undo all the other steps... and you are done.
