Is it a custom or off the shelf exhaust? What's the sound like and may I ask how much it cost? I will be going for similar tailpipes but can't decide whether to go for 2.25" or 2.5". I will hopefully be hopefully changing mine in April

Got any better pics of the exhaust?

its a custom made one.

Its a quiet burble more than anything. I wanted the look more than the sound but i have a short video here:

Cost £130.00

Nice car :y :y
The Apex give a smoth ride even to the Estate, wich I had them fitted to...but, this is what happend to my left rear spring after only two years :(
Hope your's will last longer. Several people here in Norway who had the same problem on the Omega with Apex, but there's allways warranty  :y

our mv6 is also lowered and gives a surpirsing decent ride  :)

my v6 cdx is also lowered-30 and it is a great ride (did uprated shox too - it just feels like a 'modern' car now although I am still on 16's  :-[)

Yep, that's looking just right at the moment Dan, be a pity to sell it  :-\

Still needs fogs to add that finishing touch though  :)
