That's the idea mate ... Hopefully it will look we'll ...I'm thinking of changing the tip on the exhaust as well to a outward rolled one instead of slash cut .

I'm not sure on the tail pipe Mat as that exhaust isn't your usual Mongie or similar it's rare and shouldn't be butchered, plus slash cut is proper old skool for these.

You have a point mate ... It would be a shame to butcher a GGR hand Made exhaust...going to take it to a place for polishing etc
