Right ive always said that i wouldnt get a back box for my car but i have now changed my mind

Anyway all i really want from it is looks obvoiusly not preformance as it is for a 1.2 8v. anyway i want one that is quite and not that much differnt to the standrad sound but maybe a bit more of a purr if u get what i mean.

this is the bumper car is will be going on standard pre 97 bumper etc





Im currently thinking twin round or oval what do u think? Anyone got any pics of these or others with standard bumpers?
also what brands would u reckomend for the above requirements

Cheers for your help Gavin

Peco sound good, not a drone or thunder like a massive oval, just add depth to the sound and they dont sound like youve got a staandard exhaust whch is blowing to FCUK
