No, the grill was fine. I got the clamp on version, the hole in the grill was big enough to just slide it through. Looks kind of funky, not a clean look like a side stack, and you have to remember it's there when the front end is close to anything.
Like I said, my muffler was not working well so I was either spending money on a new stock muffler or leaving the one I have in place and spending on the Supertrapp. I decided to give it a try. A good test will be if I put it on the 2084 which is already quieter.

If you get a wide frame (others may be similar) the 'stock' muffler exits at the right front of the tractor. I'd get some pipe (conduit works, I'm told) and bend it so it goes straight up, and add a IH Cub muffler on top for a 'dual muffler' system.
To make it quieter yet, make sure the stack is taller than you (seated on tractor), or get a 'turn out' and face it forward. Really though, I think it'd be hard to beat a good set of 'earmuff' style hearing protection. I'd recommend wearing hearing protection whenever operating the CC or other powered equipment.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
