Its powerflow mate, the tailpipes are actually carbon fibre, but you can't tell from the pics. I really like some of the Rage designs, especially the slash cut jobbies.

just makes it looks like a wheelbarrow in my opinion.

big pipes are just overkill on small cars

But, what i was thinking of was a single 5 inch rage exhaust, i wanted something bigger than peco and powerflow was a ttad expensive for me.

A mate of mine says that, and I see where your coming from, but it should'nt look to bad when its poking though a different bumper.

just use the existing bolts, but make sure you get spiggot rings for the alloys

if you dont know what spiggot rings are then do a search on them

spiggot rings centre the wheel on the hub and take the pressure of the wheel studs

u'll find your std wheels sit snuggly on the hub, aftermarket alloys 9 times outta 10 will have a larger centre bore and will not sit snugly on the hub
