I want to keep the car looking like Vag built it - OEM Plus.

Exhaust is from Prospeed Cardiff - booked in for saturday 9.30 just need to decide on tail pipe

I prefer the twin style tailpipe design.
Are you going to like the equivelant of a powerflow dealer?

sort but an independent specialist - charlie once worked for one of the big custom chains and went out on his own

definitley oval, just looks a lot more 'beefier' and mean if that makes sense? yet still gives it a bit of class with it being a nice oval shape rather than a big fat hole (ie like seen on corsas & novas!).

when i see a twin exhaust I just don't think 'power', but when i see the big oval one that the cupras have i think 'power'.

this is making more sense in my head than it is in words!!!

I'd love that sort of look to the rear end of my car. Just finishes it off nicely.

Lovin that look

Andrew maybe you have a point


after the exhaust is sorted on wish list are these vents, pedals and the wheel

but its all about descreetness

mines a miltek decat , but looks like OEM

and not bad for just shy of 200bhp
on city diesel as mark spotted / confirmed it

so looks can be deceiving ask a few potrolheads my way

think if i went for another i would def go unusual

when charlie got the box off , get the tips and mate them upto the rear bumper and see which takes your fancy

just do some googleing

I think it's all about personal preference. I like the idea of having no tail pipe showing and the bumper being completely smooth for the euro look.

Maybe a DTM tail pipe to be different?

That tip would probably be worth more than the entire system

Second one is off a Porsche Cayanne and the last one is a DTM tip. I like the first one.

As Lee said unless you get replica ones those tailpipes will cost more than most exhaust systems.

They look smart tho
