Hi there!
I saw these 4" flame burnt tip exhausts in a R-Tech advertisement and want one! I rang them up,wanting to purchase one but they said they do not fit them as they require pipe BENDING :lol: and welding in order to be fit!?!? :o :o
Does anyone have a universal fit backbox on their car and how/where did u go about fitting it? Any ideas how much will cost to fit?
too much work required IMO, i bought a rage twin 3 inch backbox which was "universal" but bodyshop couldnt fit it as it didnt have the hangers, and i need all sorts like reducer pipes etc, so took it back and got an irmscher one which slid straight on :)
for what you pay, and the effort to fit it, just spend a few ££ extra and get a custom one made up
yeah, u have 2 have brackets welded on, :(
n they charge u alot of dosh :cry:
of u could do wat im doin knockin up oa steel trim on my lathe lwhich slides on 2 da 2 da orgional :D cheap but a good way 2 look gud till u can afford a decent system. :D

Exhaust trim! :lol: No thanks! I'd rather have the standard pea shooter hidden away under the bumper! :lol:
I probably get a peco backbox or sumthing cheap then. Basically,want a bit more grunt from me motor,not a **** off loud 'hear me comin from the next town' exhaust, just an exhaust tone that will give me an excuse to rev the engine (once in a while! :wink: ) but not deafen me on the motorways!
Any suggestions? :?
p.s. I have a 1.2 SXi
na this baybe will be brilliant, belive me, it wont look like a standard trim.
:D n itll be a friction fit, so no unsightly bolts, pure 3 inch
ull see wen its finished :D
