dilemma with my vertex kit with single exhaust
Looking for some opinions here.
I have a agency power ti single exhaust right now on my Z and I have a vertex kit comming in the mail. My dilemma twin exit rear bumber/ single exhaust.
Option 1: I'm thinking about fiberglassing over the other exhaust cutout but i'm trying to picture it. I'm thinking it will change the whole look of the rear bumper in a bad way. Plus I don't want the bodyshop to put a inferior patch on a superior product.
Option 2: Sell the Agency Power exhuast and run stock exhaust until I find a replacement dual exhaust. Most likely a dual HKS Ti.
My z color is superblack so the passenger side exit if left alone with the AP exhaust might not look bad at night but i know during the day I'll hate the sight of the unused exit.
Open to opinions/options!!
Thanks
Robert

I wouldnt wanna get rid of my agency power .. the only other exhaust I think that's just as nice on color and looks is the amuse r1 titan, and I dunno if I wanna spend a good chunk of change for that
How do you make a poll? I tried to edit the thread into a poll but i never saw the option to do it. Sorry it might be really easy and i might have missed it but I've never do one.
Yeah Chris i really like my AP but I think it might make the kit look Fugly. Any body with photoshop willing to do a cover up of the passenger side cutout on the blue Vertexed Z in the other thread?

Yeah i was thinking about the TS mastergrade(group buy) rear diffuser maybe but I'm not sure how that will look versus the nice and clean vertex kit. I think that might be another option tho. I forgot about the TS diffuser idea... i had it a few days ago.
So if i sold the rear who would be interested? anyone?
trim it so its an opening. idk if you understand what im trying to say.. guess id have to see a pic of the rear bumper. im just too lazy lol. wendy had a believe a red reflector over her other hole. (sounds bad lol) it looked good, but kinda odd in a way
Hm..i say you should cover up the hole. I think most vertex kits on the silvia's and 240 that have the vertex kip kit in the rear,(which looks strikingly similar to our rear lip), is only a single exit. It looks pretty good on their car. The only thing is covering the hole and contouring it so it looks flush with the rest of the lip. I hope what i said makes sense.
