Thanks! I got tired bending over and kneeling down just to get a good look of my amuse canisters so i decided to give it a try.

I added one more pic but my crappy camera didn't catch the "blue gradiation" on the tips quite well...

There's actually 4 Holes in that support bracket for our rear. The 2 lined-up holes are about 1-2 inches higher which i used to attached the rear bumper tabs.

I pretty much just pulled it up and tightened them in place. No heating and no drilling. So far it's holding-up fine and i haven't seen any crack(s) on the paint. Hope that makes sense.

I say the rolled up bumper works better with Amuse R1 than HKS Hi Power!

yeah, I dont like that look much at all with a TD exhaust, with a single it is a must though.

While it doesn't look bad, I think the bumper rolling mod looks MUCH better with singles or dual canisters.

Nothing really could take away from that exhaust system though.
