Fullmetaljacket,
Nicely done ,Like the way you welded a bracket to the a fixing bolt and secure the tips with bolts,and in no way interfering with the standard mufflers,meaning you can just unscrew the tips and bring back to stock again You got the look without the soot.

Huntertech,
I saw your post with the inside alteration to the standard mufflers and that was a job very well done,and now you have less back pressure (great for the turbo+performance) and a nicer sound

Hi,

You car looks great! I've just done exactly the same today!! I bought 2 oval stailess steal tips and had someone weld them onto my rear silencers. I then painted inside them with heat resistant paint.
I felt the same as you, i didnt want to mess around with the original system and wanted the 4.8 look!
I will get some pics up for you to see if you dont mind, dont want to steal your thead though!

Cheers,
Roy.

Sorry for hijacking the thread but thought you might like to see my tips too. The pics dont do them any justice, they look crooked but their not.
Cheers, Roy.
