I love the look of Beetlegav's but maybe a bit bigger?

Hi Chris

I have updated the first post. There is a huge variety in the exhausts your correct. I am trying to get all the dimensions i need.

The tips are made to fit your car year and engine size they are then held in place with a M5 bolt and a locking nut.

Thanks Matt. Missed that bit!

Are Luke's welded on rather than fitting "over" the original pipes?

Just a bit worried that the old pipes will be really visible with the large diameter tips?

Anybody got the larger tips on a non M?

Chris yes Luke's are welded on If you can get to Ox28 i can weld them on for you.

It was only Luke and Marius who had the bigger tips. Its not that much bigger. I could also make them longer and you could cut some of your exhaust down. But that's something most people would want to avoid.

Where are you based in the country? I am guessing Wales? I head to south Wales a bit to see family. Maybe we could meet and you could see for yourself??

See you and Rob soon Inkey

Here are mine. They are brushed; basically the same as Swiftly's so I've added some pics of alternative angles.

Really pleased - had some good comments about them from mates and strangers. Apart from looking good, they are really easy to clean. :thumbsup:

Thanks for the offer Matt thats's really kind of you. To be honest i think i would prefer to avoid cutting the exhaust down or welding it unless really needed.

Am i right in thinking Marius' tips are not welded on?

Just found this pic for anyone else thinking of the bigger option...

I am really interested in one for mine, but mine is a 2.0 facelift so has the single oval. Is it possible to do?

Really like the "fuller" look that Marius has.
Do you know if bolting them on was straight forward?
