i had one the same on my old CDX (but 2x3" tails) and knew if i bought another i had to do the same.

I hope you dont mine me asking but would you be happy to get another one done and post it on if i was to send you payment :)

What a lovely vehicle V6  8-) 8-) 8-) I would lose the blue led's though, they look quite out of place and spoil the front of an otherwise great car :y :y

How loud is it when its just ticking over then?

Be interesting to hear it if there’s anyway you can record the sound.  ;D :D

you should just be able to hear it in york  ;D
no really, tickover is a deep burble, then upto 3K very boomy then a quieter raw and raspy V sound  8-)
i should be coming up to the york meet so you can have a demo  ;)

i would but its not that easy i,m affraid.
they were custom made by powerflow so there,s no jig or pattern to build more.
if the bends are,nt spot on the twin tails wont line up right, it took 2 hours to make and fit these.
i,m sure there,s a custom exhaust builder near you as they are worldwide nowadays.

no idea and no idea mate  :-[

ive got old pics of the car with the correct alloys but have no info about the swop  :-?
and the tints i assume were done somewhere in gloucester where the funeral directors were based  ;)
all i know is its a top class job and really looks the part  8-)

Great shape your mig is in mate  :y

cheers mate but it actually wants another £400 spent on bodywork to make me happy  ::)
a mate is going to paint the alloys, both bumpers, front spoiler and bottom door sections on the nearside  ;)

after a full power buff it should look like new, then i,ll be happy  :y

After perfection, are you  ;) :y

just fitted my new ebay grille i got for £50 but i,m undecided about it  :-/
i think it looks very odd and either needs a vauxhall or irmscher badge in the middle or something  :-?
although i think it looks great with the splitter so it looks like i,ll be spending another £85 for that  ::)

what do you lot think???  :-/
