• Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Wondering if anyone know if I swap my current LX Exhaust for the Borla exhaust do I need to replace my entire bumper or just the rear lower valance panel? Thanks
 
You shouldn't have to replace anything. A good muffler shop should bend the pipes to fit the vehicle.

The Borla system is a bolt on perfect fit. Routes and exits exactly like your OEM exhaust. You don't have to make any modifications.
Watch an installation on Youtube!
 
I have a 2021 LX, and I had to cut the bumper to fit the Borla exhaust tips. Not much of a big deal, since I had cut other panel pieces to install other parts. I started with small cuts, and slowly the hole larger until it fit properly. There was some slight melting of cut edges, but it helped to smooth/straighten the cuts, and the bumper hugs the tips perfectly now. No other issues at all. Worth it, no ragrets.

Some pics I just took now (sorry, need to wash)
