Official "booty" thread...your rear-end...exhaust & diffuser photo

I've done tons of searches for different photos of exhaust and diffusers but didn't come up with too much. I was hoping to get one thread started showing different configurations of the rear diffuser, exhaust, shields, brackets, whatever...I'm hoping others that are considering a diffuser, exhaust, or removal of the rear panels or heat shields can see what others have done so far...

Thanks for posting...yours may be the most custom/unique as I assume most others to follow will be bolt ons!

Everyone else, get to posting; I want to see your rear end!

I know it's early, but DragonRider has top billing

Thanks, I rather like the quad-tips from SndDesigns but somehow I'd have a much harder time explaining that it's not a V8 with those. How do those sound anyhow? They look excellent!

Also like the truss design of Moto's rear eliminators from above but not sure I could go with something that leaves that much of the rear open. There are so many great designs up there that it's hard to go wrong.

SNDESIGN.... in another post you stated that it's running two Maganflow Oval mufflers? Any diagram or photos on how the piping is routed?

Sorry I don't have anything that would help.
The next time I'm under the car I can take some wider shots.

I took this picture with a photo flood that messed up the color...
