Default Fresh wash, new custom catback

I got an OBX Twin Loop and new mandrel bent pipes for the hatch and finally got some pics. Fresh after a wash. The last owner cut out the bumper like that. New front and rear bumpers to come with lips. Still not decided on whether to have black or paint to match with the lips, because black or gunmetal rims are in the near future too.

It sounds great. Its a not too much louder than stock, but its a good low tone. I got the Twin Loop for like $89 and the pipes from the cat back were $125 installed and muffler welded on. So not much over $200 total and it sounds and feels amazing compared to stock pipes and **** can that was on it when I got it.

Looks good, but damn did it not fit or why did the person cut the bumper all uneven like that?

i assume the old owner cut the bumper so the can would fit...

Yeah, that kid put on a giant can that sounded like ****. Plus there was a rusty leak right behind the cat. So it was like a terrible sound. Ill try to get a sound clip for you guys. He cut out the bumper with wire cutters....dont know how he managed that. So im getting new front and rear bumpers. I dont know the paint code though....do places have ways to match to unknown color codes or will this be a big problem? I just know its called Tangerine.
