You getting rid off the over axle exhaust then?

I have an under axle botch job and hate every second of it The axle will bang into the exhaust at any kind of sensible ride height. Lower the car and the exhaust scrapes over the smallest of ridges. I've been planning on having it replaced by a nice over axle unit, so if you kick yours to the kerb...

Finally some progress

A little more work on the drivers side rear arch.





As for the exhaust, I just wasnt happy with the routing over the axle and the fact that the fuel tank would need adjusting again so I got them to change the exhaust system......

The end result is much better

Before...



After....



You can also see the nice rolled & angled Ti tailpipe that I requested





The Tailpipe should go a nice colour when it gets some heat into it.

The Ti tailpipe is cool, I like subtle, I dont like big boy racer tail pipes It will be better when it goes a nice rainbow colour

When'll that be?

Conrad,

It's a common misconception that titanium will burn by itself to get that nice refractive finish, but it doesn't occur by heat alone.

Electrolytic titanium colouring is the method used in industry. I'd love to be able to colour titanium... would be cool to refinish parts myself, but it's a little bit of a pain to set up.

Here's some info:
