Weird Looking FL2 rearend

When I was choosing a colour for my next FL2 I was saving photos of FL2's for sale at dealers onto my computer to compare. Anyway I was having a look earlier at what I had saved some months ago and came across this FL2 in Bali Blue



Straight away you will clock the dodgy looking twin exhaust set up, perhaps a fake or a petrol version (that does have twin exhausts)

But do you notice anything else not quite right, study the pic again (sorry its not a better photo) and scroll down if you havent spotted it



















There are no badges on the back - not because they have been removed but because there is an added body coloured moulding attached to the bottom of the bootlid in keeping with the profile of the bumper. I have never seen one of these before - is looks quite smart, anyone else seen one or heard of the part being available?

I have checked the dealers website and its not there anymore but a very unusual find.

Adds a muscular look to the back, perhaps another project for Mav71 Idea

I rather like the twin-pipes new look. In fact, I much prefer the fanny of that vehicle to mine. Very nice spot on your part. I looked at the photo for quite some time, but didn't notice the change. In my book, if I don't notice the change, it was done up proper like.

The extra body molding added to the distal portion of the boot lid is great! No more snow and muck collecting on the bumper, and provides continuity between the boot lid and the bumper. Thumbs Up

It looks like the exhaust pipe on the right could be a dummy as it is much cleaner than the one on the left -- you can see the dividing strip. mole
