Going to get a backbox and wondering if people could post some pics of the exhausts. Is it better to get a whole cut out in the bumper or put it under?

The Supersprint exhausts are meant to be very good, and there's a rear exhaust with twin slash-cut pipes, a la the Golf GTI. It would look good with a cut-out in the rear bumper.
I have a Remus exhaust, and it's also very good. I chose to have it mounted below the rear bumper, so I didn't have to mutilate the rear bumper.
Some people on here have gone with the more subtle approach, from Powerflow, and had the exhaust done in a stock-style, which is hidden behind the bumper and points downwards. I'm sure other companies like Longlife can do one for your car.
Here's my car with the 82x67mm twin pipe Remus exhaust:

My bumper is cut out because I've had my exhaust sat as high as possible.
After lowering I am VERY glad I made the decision to do that.

had mine done last week, gonna post some pictures after this week..gonna be a very big change from what the car looked like a few weeks ago. Definitely had to get it cut into the bumper, as it simply would have been kissing the floor all the time
