no they only sell it from catback :( £271 is the cheapest ive found on ebay.
my cat back is welded so would need to buy a cat back, fit the backbox and then sell the new cat back with my backbox for however much it was worth

That cant be right, so they wont sell you just a backbox? Did you speak with Scorpion direct?

I emailed them asking if they would tell me the dimensions so that I could be sure before i bought one ( i saw one on ebay i wanted but it was advertised as universal) I told them I had a mate who had one for sale so I could be sure it would fit before bidding or buying it.... which in hindsight was the dumbest thing ever because even though i was already a scorpion customer they knew i wasnt after business and i got back a response saying we never made a universal backbox for the ibiza, no dimensions or anything..... so when i emailed back asking about them selling me a backbox only they didnt answer me lol

lol at the quote

at one point i think there was someone selling a scorpion catback on here for about £150 but was way up north and wanted to make sure it fitted, would prefer a twin pipe but its all about the price, selling mine on afterwards would make a bit of that back
