Jap tech UN Southampton are pretty cool people. Fitted a exhaust for ny impreza. I also use hi q in northam as they've always been decent and a few like there cars. Id say call or try it yourself. Pretty easy job I'd imagine.
Cannot wait for my backbox delete. Gonna ask for a loud one lol

Ill fit it.
Fully qualified Ford technition.
Just for some reassurance, I fitted my full 3" system on my LCR, which included downpipe and decat.

Oh i'm qualified, i have a level 3 in "automotive vehicle service and repair", (i did the 3 year course at Sparsholt college in 2 years). I just don't have the space, time or tools.
and i'm planning to paint my tips first, i went for the twin exit rather than the oval to be different and im going to use the caliper paint i have left over to paint the chrome bits blue.
hopefully it will arrive tomorrow and i can get to work on the painting.
i might take you up on the offer if i run out of time before Gti International
No worries, I have all that here lol. I have a garage.
Let me no if you want it done and il PM you a price.
Managed to fit the exhaust myself yesterday, snuck in the gf's parents garage while they were out, they weren't best pleased to see bits of old exhaust sprawled across their driveway when they came back, but it's on now.
It's not quite as loud as I thought but it's still got the standard down pipe and cat at the moment, and I like my blue exhaust tips, it may need another coat tho, some got scraped as I was forcing the back box on to its mount.
Any ideas how I line it up straight?
And how do I get it popping or do I have to wait until I get a sports cat? I'm new to this whole aftermarket exhaust scene.

Well done on the fitting.
Looks like the back box needs to be twisted to sit straight.
You won't get any popping or banging with a cat back.
You need a downpipe and a decat for that. If you get a sports cat and make it pop and bang you will blow the cat.
Mine full 3" cobra pops and bangs, but you must learn where the sweet spot is and when. It's hard to explain, the engine has to be under load at a certain rpm for it to pop and bang.

Cool, I might get a decat then, will be a long way off yet tho. Are they easy to swap out for the MOT?
Dozer just saw you going past the mayflower. Thought blue tips that rings a bell lol. Was around 2 o'clock. SPOTTED looked cool dude

Yeah was picking the gf up from work.
Thanks, I'm going to start a craze of different coloured exhausts, silver is boring.
