CarlssonLS400 has them....just gotta wait for him to chime in. Sounds like a decent, if not not good deal to me. You missed out on an Lsportline blow-out by a couple of months...the set was going for $199.

I'll have the L-sportline exhaust on my LS (the one for the LS) hopefully by this Friday and can put up a report / pics this weekend.

Without the cutouts on the L-sportline rear bumper or another aftermarket bumper, not sure how they'd fit though.... I guess the l-sportline bumper is lower and the line on it in the pics is about where the OEM bumper would end, so probably would stick out OK.

Default Exhaust

i wish they had deals like this for my GS.

$150 is definitely a good price!

Paul from Carson put the L-sportline exhaust on his 1st gen. He had custom straight pipes made to fit the exhaust but it looks real nice:



The exhaust is only rear section but for $150 you can't go wrong.

seeing as how i want the exhaust but want to wait for a kit until after i get some wheels (monies$$$) would it be possible for me to either get some cutouts made ot the existing bumper or to find a mild rear bumper thats not too expensive and would look alright without rest of kit?

also, the same guy is selling the L-Sportline 3pc rear spoiler. it says UCF20/21, so would it fit my '95? he wants $50 for the spoiler.

Thanks again

PS
What rear end mods were done to the above car? looks really stock/factory.

Just do what Lexkost did...make cutouts in the bumper using a dremel.



I have yet to see any mild rear aftermarket bumpers that aren't too expensive and would look alright without the rest of the kit.

As for the spoiler, you need to ask if it will fit a UCF20/21 "before" model. I know for a fact that it was originally made for the UCF20/21 "after" model.

Man that bites, I don't think you can buy it for $199 anymore. The Blowout passed.

FWIW, I went to the bodyshop where my LS is being worked on (L-sportline kit is being painted today) and they already had the L-sportline exhaust and suspension on the car with the stock rear bumper.

It DOES fit on the stock rear bumper no problems and with no cutouts... extends out nicely just below the bumper edge. The slope of the OEM rear bumper / bumper sides is such that you see a lot of the exhaust plumbing (which is nice and shiny, at least for now) from the side of the car though.
