Hi mate,
I'll take the set you have for the facelift, assuming they're the same size for the 2.5?
Cheers.

I dont make anything for the 2.0l as its very different. With 2 pipes joining into the one Oval pipe. I have made an oval cover, I have also made up pipes to weld on to the back box but the oval part would need cutting off.
I would be happy to help you or make either. But i would need you to come to my workshop for it to be custom made.

I am not 100% sure of the size of the 2.5l Pipes. If you pull the tip off (they are held by spring clips or a screw underneath) And just measure with a rule and if they are around 60mm Then they will fit.
If not get the measurements and i can always make a set to fit

I've just order mine when I fit it I will post a pic but I think it will be a week or so when my mate can weld it on for me.
Great news i am very happy you like them
oke:All,
First let me say that I love my MM tips, and would not give them up for the world!
A lesson to pass on - pulling away from worl last week I heard this loud metallic rasping sound. My first thought was - "That can't be my car, no way". Someone standing next to the car, said "Oh yes it is - it's coming from the back of your car".
Close inspection revealed that one of the set screws which keeps the SS tips attached to the exhaust pipe had come a little loose, and was allowing the tip to rattle around on the pipe, even to the point where it could slide back and forth on the exhaust pipe. I was glad that the tip did not fall off.
No big deal - but, be sure as a part of routine checks - check the tightness of the set screws. It is now easy to see how they might vibrate loose with time, as might any fastener.

I was going to include locking nuts but then their has to be a long bolt. And it can be visible (probably only if you lie on the floor!!)I am happy to send you the longer bolts and 2 more nuts if you want to try that SB?
No problem customer satisfaction is what I want
Had a nice surprise when I've just got home from work my tips are here, was expecting them tomorrow hopefully get them put on sooner if I can can't wait now am like a kid a Xmas.

Hi mate.
I'll need the same size as what Kat had?
Ok I have a set of those almost made. I can have them sent out early next week
PM with a address to send them and we can sort out the ugly side of things (payment) :rofl:
