   Want a trim for my Exhaust to jusrt make it look better, promblem is i have a 1.1 and at the moment the end of the exhaust faces down.This means that i wouldnt be able to fit a big trim to the end of it. What could i do to fit it?

   Yeah, or you can buy them ones with a curve. I wouldnt bother tbh. Most of them look tat. Best off getting a backbox

   i have a 3.5" inch tail pipe, that has no problem with the bumper, so why would a trim?

   dont bother mate they look shite, and if your buying it from halfrauds then it will cost half the price of a backbox, just get a magnex or a piper on there.

   Just had a look at piper and magnex but the same to be only for 1.4's and up. None for 1.1's, dont get it!
