If it`s just the flexi blowing on your downpipe this is all you need, have the old one cut out and the new welded in. Genuine front pipe is stupid money from VX

Do not fit pattern cats!

Find someone who is good at cutting/welding to replace the flexi section  :y

I got the whole front section (downpipes & 2 cats up until the rear box) for about £160 from EuroCarParts).

They seem to change their prices depending on how they are feeling, so just ring around a few different branches, and when you get quoted a price, ask if they can do anything for you... You will probably find each branch will quote you a way different price...

Slightly cheaper than Vx £1000 jobby... Sounds the same, are certified, and guaranteed for 2 or 3 years.. cant remember exactly...

Don't bother welding the flexi... You cant get a decent seam and it will be a temp fix at best...
