Finally got round to sourcing a decent condition exhaust for my car. Only wanted the 1.8 SRi backbox as imo it suits the car perfectly - wasn't too bothered about the sound, but it looks far better. Arrived yesterday, fitted last night (after loooooooads of trouble getting the old 1 off!) and got some quick pics today 
What you think?
Old:

New:





Also, quick vid just to prove to all the people who told me that it would be a pointless mod (noise wise) and that my butchered airbox was rubbish :

This one I sourced off a guy on CC|UK. Been looking for ages though - either go for too much (£80 ish!) £130ish brand new, or are rusted and look awful 1.4 isn't too bad, but this 1 looks better as has the chrome tip to it.

Also, has anybody got a Remus or any other replacement mid section? Considering one to beef it up a bit more as a future mod - just wondering if its worth it?
