ive still got work to do on it yet, but i cut the bumper as its more practical to allow air into it??
that is a custom exhaust we had made 3" bore straight the way through with a 3.5" tailpipe

I would take it to a bodyshop and get them to sort the inside out for you!
Get them to take all the sound deadening out and give it a spray of paint inside, you could very easily have a cover worthy car!!
