Do you think it will look like the gti one? Anyone tried removing std one and installing something like this? I mean, do you need to somehow remove std one?

all you do is slot it over your existing exhaust

It would stick out too far anyway, you would need to cut the standard exhaust in order to get that extension to sit in the bumper.

Ye, thats what i am concerned about.
I will be ordering GTI rear bumper, now need something with exhaust so it looks like gti one
Basically like this — need twin pipe. Any ideas how to achieve it?

You could have one tip as a dummy and mount it to the other one:
If you know anyone who can TIG weld they should be able to join them like that. Or you could drill a hole through each pipe and put a spacer in the centre to keep them apart:
The bolt would be hidden by the lip around the inside of the pipe.
