Exhaust needs a little trimming

[beadl3s]

I want to add a duel tip onto my exhaust, it currently looks like:

I assume that I'm going to have to cut the pipe down a bit for the tip to fit properly... however I don't really know how best to do this?

I don't really want to take it to a garage to do it as im relatively skint at the moment! (F*cking new cars!)

Also will it void my warranty or just the warranty of that part of the exhaust?

Cheers

Josh.

If you're going for a tailpipe - it normally slides on over the original exhaust and clamps onto it but either 10mm bolts/8mm bolts or allen key screws.

ahh right thanks mate... I was aware that you could slide them on over the top of the original, but the one I am considering looks as though with the tip on it would stick out a bit too far from the bumper... heres what I'm looking at:

hmm dont like tht dtm at all...go for a nice subtle oval if ur gonna get a trim

Then you can just cut it with anything. Angle grinder....hacksaw.....jigsaw......light sabre.....

nah look to chav for me matey, very halfords

Like this -

this is the best choice IMO, not chav at all and I think your zorst warranty will be safe to

if you have a zorst problem just remove the tip and they'll never know

or you could replace the rear valance for one without the cut out (OEM seat part) and have no zorst tip showing at all

ahh right cheers lads, yeah i thought that oval one was a bit chavvy.. might look elsewhere see what they have, ebay seems to have a whole load of **** ones on there lol

I did mine with a dremmel

the dual tip, you can also get out of Halfords (sorry to dissapoint you)

if you are looking for anything, get a new exhaust put on, or even just a new backbox, will look alot better than a stainless steel tip

 

[chazzyd]

be crazy :|

on a serious note....i think this would look good

I can sell you my old FR backbox It's been sat in my shed since I had the Milltek fitted.

Personally though one of the above single exits would look just right on your motor

 

[beadl3s]

ahh right! yeah i'll look into the purchase.. how much do you want for the fr backbox mate?

 

[deadeyejim]

Hadn't really thought about it much, it's just cluttering up my shed. I'd have to get back to you on that

 

[beadl3s]

ok mate no worries
