Well the time finally came to fit my new exhaust! Been waiting nearly 2 weeks to do it cos my knee has been fooked & is still hurtin pretty bad! Still... the sort of things people do when bored 
Up on the ramps, ready to begin!
This is to be binned... Standard ruibbish!
This was replaced as new when I got the car 4 months ago...
This was 'supposedly' replaced with the backbox... yeah right!
Took only a few mins and the old backbox was off!
Damn centre section just wouldnt budge so drastic measures were needed...for the Stubborn Stains!
Damn thing was well stuck on! So used a combination of Hammer, Chissel, Grinder & swearing...
Will it come off?? Who knows! Its like its welded on!
Finally got the damn Center Section off! Yay for Me!
Old 2-piece Standard Crap vs New 3-piece Lexmaul Grp-N System
Finally after a few mins, the new system is fitted & gummed up!
Plenty of clearance for when its lowered!
Looks so much better & is a real good fit!
Definately looks a hell of alot better!
All in, not bad for a few hours work due to the damn center section being stubborn
Was quite raspy when I first started it & drive it, but after a few mins that soon went & was really nice sounding! Also the engine is revving a hell of alot easier now & seems to feel more pokier! Also considering there isnt a centre silencer, its not too loud!
All in I'm well chuffed

Alot better now I'm ironing out all the lil problems, the cat had 2 small holes in it so I sealed em up all good!
Just need to replace all the brakes now, as there runnin pretty low!
Might upgrade the rear to discs, but unsure if I can be bothered...
