Question plastic welding exhaust cutout?
Just wondering whats used, if anyone has done it and how hard it would be. I would love to have only one cutout for a single muffler. Thanks for any info and help.

SMC? What does that stand for? How hard is it to do yourself? I just don't want to get into something myself that I won't be able to do very well.

Best bet: Find a junk bumper, cut a large section from the bottom, in the center. Take it to a body shop, have them trim it and FG/Epoxy/whatever it in, and have them paint the bumper.

It's simple to just fiberglass it in yourself, my coworker did it. I'll have to try to dig up some pics.
