Coming into a little bit of money and want to change my exhaust as it was on the car when i bought it and i've never really been keen on it. I've quickly photoshopped the type of system i want. Just wondered what everyone thinks.
This is what exhaust is on now...

And this is what i would like, kinda like a mk4 golf r32 look to it...

If i go ahead, can anyone recommend a good place up north that'll do this, as i've heard mixed things about powerflow centres (they sound a bit hit and miss with their quality) anyway, opinions on new exhaust idea anyone ?

twin exhausts like that make cars look a bit chavvy imo. get a nice subtle 3" inwardly rolled. will look a lot more subtle

twin will look good if you have them further apart (where the bumper comes down at the ends) and higher up (cut into the bumper a bit)
but i think a single 3" or a small oval would be better.
or a rounded rectangle type oval.

i really like the look of that. Reminds me of this:

i cannot recommend exhaustsuk enough for the job. Ive got £625 worth of exhaust from there and love it.

your near top gear in burnley, i know usually powerflow get a slating, but these guys are the best in the area
not sure if i like your idea though, maybe if you raised them up a little and cut your bumper to fit?

That'd ruin a really nice, subtle car in my opinion.
I'd get a simple 3" outward rolled exit, like this


A Peugeot Sport de-cat exhaust iirc.
