Not my cup of tea, but then again, neither are dual exhausts.

Maybe you could pull it off, but dually's are a tough way to go for a nice look.

i know that I would lose performance out of it. but its just a civic, not too much too lose anyways, and my car is a show car. I am debating though, to make the left muffler a dummy, so I could keep the little performance that I have.

One thing is for sure. If you get a body kit for your car make sure it has been shaped for dual outs otherwise it'll look funny. Kinda like I want a kit that isn't made for two as I only want one. Duals will hurt performance but if all you're after is show then do what you think is best.

I have also heard of people molding their license plate into their second dual exhaust cut-out, supposedly it looks good. Has anyone seen this before?

I completely agree with you Honda Nation. I believe that our civics are definately more for customization of looks than performance.

I have the Xenon kit also and anything BUT dual exhuast will look goofy. This one dude who lives around my area also has the Xenon kit and his got one muffler and it doesnt look right. When spring rolls around I'm definatly getting dual exhaust cuz it will go perfectly with the Xenon kit.

And to the people who say "you lose power with dual exhaust," but how can you lose something you don't have? Sure if someone has a turbo or an engine swap then you wouldnt want to lose power but with a stock engine Civic?

Come on, spending 300 bucks on "performace" exhuast to get like 2 hp and then brag how you only put "performace" parts on your car?

^^ That my friends is the new rice I'm seeing
