does anyone know if the v bumper will work with a 03 cts with dual borla exhaust.
The tips are really big on the borla and just want to make sure before I start my project.

yes, i have borla exhaast and a vee rear bumper and it fits perfectly. you may wand to get the rear v fender liners for a perfect fit at part zone online they are like 20.00 a piece or less. rediculously cheap. but if not, the stock ones will work you'll just have a 1" gap or so between the bottom of the liner and the bottom of the bumper.

Thanks Tommy for the reply, I don't understand what you mean by the "gap".
Can you see this from the outside?

no, its a small gap on the iside of the rear wheel well, the v bumper is lower than the stock cts so the fender liners don't quite reach the bottom of the bumper. not a big deal, unless you drive in the snow, before long you get 50lbs of snow packed under each side of the bumper. i'm using the stock liners right now, but before next winter i'll be buying the v ones. i'll post pics when i get a chance.
