My LC OEM exhaust

[jaybeee]

I noticed a whole back (like quite a few months, maybe even a year) that my standard 2003 Leon Cupra exhaust has a small crack in the back box. This appears to me to be more of a split in the outer most back box. Not a crack all the way through. It does also look rather rusty now.

Whilst I'd love to get a new cat-back mid-sport custom exhaust from a place over here in NI, I only want to do this when I need to. And no, not when the current exhaust falls off mind you, but not if I have another 6 months, year or maybe even two in her. I'll have difficult justifying this to the wife unless it is a must.

Anyway, I'm rambling. So here are a few pics:

What do you guys think?

It doesn't rattle or make any bad sounds by the way, so I think right now it's ok...

Hi,

mine has been like this for 3 years and hasn't fallen off, its just a double skin on it.

My LCR zorst is like that at the mo, apart from the tailpipe which is mint still (guessing that as expected that's the only bit which was looked after by previous owner)

Mine will be ripped off within a month fingers crossed, to be replaced with a full turbo back blueflame system

Cheers guys.

I'm happy that it's common for them to end up like that, and that it'll probably last a bit longer.

I was kind of hoping that it needed replacing though lol Just so I can get a new one. Need to save some pennies anyway.
