Gettin a rierger extension for the rear and i'll eventually have this backbox with it..........

I think it looks crap when the mesh is cut around it even if its flush, and it also looks a bit pants when theres no mesh atall.
So is there anything atall you can do to make it look a bit better, maybe a surround or something

Are you just leaving it like that?
I would want the mesh a bit tidier, maybe flush to the pipe with a chrome surround or something.

Yeh I am leaving it like that. Looks crap on that rear extension if you have it flush to the exhaust.

Thats my initial point. So what is there to do??
A wide gap looks pants, but flush looks crap. Thats why i was thinking flush with a surround to separate the pipe from the mesh. There must be somethin.

I've never seen it done on the Reiger extension. IMO I think it looks ok with a gap when you have twin exhaust like you have. See this is nice...

I don't like mine at the moment, but thats because I hate the exhaust. I'm also after twin pipes, but custom job.

That ones not as bad. Yeah twin pipes really suit that bumper, especially the double twin pipes.
Maybe that'd look better with a border on the edge of the mesh.
I'll do some shoppin.

Maybe for my one an extra body coloured border could be added just to make the edge of the trim nicer. Like this:

As for yours, wat i mean is making the mesh flush to the pipe and finishing it off with a body coloured ring or maybe a chrome one like this.....
