   looking for something suitable to replace my rust can for cheap( and thus was thinking stainless steal, so it doesnt re-rust lol)... dont mind it being very slightly louder but dont really want to draw attention to myself just want to get rid of the rust look lol ebay doesnt seem to returning much results for me as all the backboxes seem to have mostly 3" tailpipes which will look and sound nothing like the standard one as my understanding goes...
   
   what can people recommend for this situation?

   a good selection being piper or supersprint
   
   though the pipers tailpipe looks quite sorted a nice small size... bet it stills quite a bit noisier than the standard box though?

   The piper is noticeably louder than a standard yes. You will be press to find a standard backbox but in stainless, if a company is going to design a backbox I doubt they would make it look the same as the standard part lols

   Magnex are stainless steel and meant to be pretty quiet from what I've read. Usually pick them up for about £60/£70ish in the for sale section.
   
   Only problem is they are 3inch but at least they aren't loud.

   Please keep this thread updated if you do find anything, 3" tail pipes are so ridiculous.

   BTB exhaust looks standard! Nice sound too but there is a big price tag & they are rare!
