That bumper is beautiful. They don't offer a dual exit?
Ze40 in your spec is face 3. 9.5 +40 is face 4, not so bbk friendly
Will fit 328mm and above. Not fitting spoon, js, urge ap racing

I almost feel my Urge exhaust is too loud plus i dont like how it hangs by the differential. It seems too low.
The Amuse looks to be tucked up high like oem. Bulletproof said i could get euro s without a resonator or a different one than standard, but im wondering how that would sound. Could be an expensive mistake
The things I try and justify!!!!
I am actually considering making a resonator-less version with the current one I have, so maybe just wait until I do that haha. It is quiet enough that I sort of want a very loud, light and angry one and nice calm one for the street.

See if you can find a place to add/remove a resonator with v-bands to quick swap between quiet/loud

Yep they offer a dual exit as well. The lower piece is easily removable so I would guess one could acquire both lower sections for dual/single options. Ah yes the +40 is face 4. They are clearly fitting it with a BBK, they are actually running larger front and rear rotors on that car. +40 is pretty aggressive, I don't see why they would have any problem fitting a BBK. People fit BBK no problem with 17x9+40 CE28Ns. Every wheel design is pretty different when it comes to caliper clearance. I guess smaller diameter rotors could be an issue but who knows. I am sure I will be happy with the +47s.

The ZE spoke design even with face4 should offer a lot more clearance than an equivalent CE.

I would rather have two separate exhausts because it motivates me to buy more S2000s.

Still. On 300mm bbk, there is no clearance for the ze40, ce28 on a 9.5 +40. That's what stopped me from getting a set. But it would of filled my fender nicely, however, I'll take the weight savings for now

It's funny that I will sort of end up with CE28N and TC105N and the wheel that is essentially right in the middle of those two in terms of design with the ZE40.

Plan is to test fit the new bumper this weekend. And get the new support and plate bracket mounted. I think I am going to mount the plate bracket with my trusty rivnuts instead of the included rivets so I can easily switch back to the OEM bumper if it is needed for whatever reason. I am going to have the paint shop paint the rear of the car behind the bumper black as well so should be easier if they can remove that bracket after I install it.

Might even pop on the Spoon mirrors so I can see how they look in black.
