actually i managed to cut almost half of it with a blade but need to change the blade now as it does not seem to be working anymore . yes i will have to take the blade out at some point . and the bumper needs a bit of cutting too ,got to do it neatly though .
i am not sure if i will need a heat shield after as this thingy has a big diameter which wont touch the sides of the original pipe ,so i dont think it will get that hot. will see after running a few times |

didnt realise what that thing was at first, thought it was the bit you cut off. Was thinking "damn this guy is some kind of a god with a jigsaw to get it done like that"  |

job done today ,my back pipe is not gay anymore it took me 2 hours to cut the rest of the pipe ,the bumper and stick the bolt on one on. it looks good comparing what it was before .will take photos tomorrow if anyone is interested ?
while checking the operation of the back pipe after ,i found out a small leak on the box itselfits very tiny but lets some exhaust gases out ,will have to use some exhaust paste on it i suppose? |
