Do you like it? What does it sound like?
I like the stock look and have been tempted to go for one
I love it. Not too sore on the ears but a very nice deep sporty sound.

I will get around to posting a video as there isn't one or taking it to a meet so people can hear it for themselves


I've tried mole grips but the bolts head isn't large enought to get a good grip on it


I was looking at pulling them off but wondered if the inner part is tapered or will it pull straight off? Or could i bend the inner part of the exhaust and then pull the tips off?

Yes, but you need to cut an inch or so off the exhaust pipes to make sure the oval tips are flush with the bumper.

Here's an exhaust which had the treatment:

Finally all done.


Had to drill it with a 6.5mm and then an 8mm and then ram the larger size easy out.



I tried pulling it off by hand but it wouldn't budge. After removing the bolt i found out why. There is a bracket witch attaches to the exhaust with a hole for the tip to attach itself to.



Cheers for the help people. Much appreciated
