A few bits ordered; first off the Resonator Delete is proceeding as planned. Just need to source some 2.5" pipe and should be golden to get the central muffler removed. Ended up crawling under the car with the Micrometer to be 100% sure of the pipework & sizing!

To finish off the back end, I finally committed to a diffuser; Carbon Fibre 'Twin Port' vaned insert from over the pond and far away (China).

Hopefully it makes it through customs in once piece :D

Also splashed out and bought some Carbon Fibre replacement badges for the front and back.

Hopefully I'll 'borrow' the Misses' GoPro and do some videos of the exhaust once the work's been done for reference!

Resonator delete performed, bought 1m length of 2.5" 304 Stainless Steel and had the central box replaced (kept it just in case because why not)

http://www.304stainlessexhaustparts.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; provided the goods; probably one of the fastest orders I have ever had the pleasure of receiving!

Onto the Vids!

Quick update; rear diffuser and carbon badges fitted. I was really impressed with the fitment of the bumper's aftermarket replacement; although it didn't have 'clips' like its OEM counterpart, the positioning and moulding was spot on!

Next on the agenda; spacers and springs. Thinking 12mm all round on 30mm drop VWR springs!

May have to order that carbon diffuser.
Looks good. Just fitted an R Line bumper to mine.
