SIDE EXIT EXHAUST

so my previous exhaust i claimed was a bit to big for my liking to be fair , so i got another of fleebay for £15

cutted a four inch (100mm) hole straight though the sj rear wing like so
Image

spend all evening cutting and drilling to get this frame think its the most annoyest thing i have ever made its not a work of art as such but it works need tweeking :)

Image

then the final result 8-)

3.5inch BOAAARRR

Image

now the pipe work to do :D , it might a bit overkill but i like it :lol:

Although not to my taste good job on the exhaust.

What are those arch extensions made of/where did they come from?

yeah they do seem to tie in well with the body styling which is why I asked.

maybe someone else will identify them as an after market job.
