maybe not a rotor accent just because that is not very original. maybe a chrome accent similar looking to the faux exhaust tips that runs along the bottom of the center hole and follows up along the sides .
but leave the upper edge of the hole plain, i think it would break the emptiness but make it look great also.

hmm a rotor emblem might be kinda odd since i kinda have an sr20 now. im thinkin about making a small emblem with my initials or somthing that represents my skunkwerks logo.

I beg to differ with you - you have not seen it or have not heard in person. The mod changed it from a raspy in yo face sound and look, to that of a true sports car. The dual resonated midpipe coupled to the RB dual cans with down and out firing tips, creates a very exotic sports car sound, unlike anything else on the planet Earth.

so damn its been a while since i posted anything on the bumper project. i got my car back from the fab shop about 6 weeks ago with my new subframe installed. between work (busy as hell) and life in general i have been working as hard as i can without going absolutley nuts to finish this entire project before hin orlando. the front bumper turned out nice besides some fitment issues that come with replica bumpers. the rear on the otherhand is a differant story. I built this bumper without my car to test fit it on, that was a dumbass move on my part. to make a long story short im having to take out about 1" of width all together in the lower section to get the curve just right so the bottom edges dont flare. also im having to modify my rear crash support beam to fit my trimmed down bumper. i will try to get up some pics in the next few days.
