I don't like it.

Don't like the tail pipe. Don't like the amount of noise that comes out of it either. Too damn loud.

Not to keen on the smoked lights either.

might un-tint them and run em standard....not sure yet.

meh.

I'd give the backbox a chance, but definately go back to the non-tint clusters! :)

yeah, it just don't quite look right with the tinted ones.....

as for he back box.... the rear bumper had to be cut for the exhaust to fit. I specified this, but it doesn't sit quite as high as I wanted. But now that I have a primered rear bumper, I'm not too sure if want to cut it about....

I think the lights look good tinted, each to their own I suppose.
Exhaust looks different, only having one silencer generally means in most cases it will be loud.

yeup.

they toldme that it wouldt be that loud. :?

I drove 200 miles in it the other day and got out the car with a headache.

under 2,500 rpm, and above 5,000 it's not too bad.... but in the middle and it's too boomy.

I feel like a boy racer driving round in my extremely loud and very slow 1.3.

bring it on nova's.

i quite like the tinted clusters, goes well with all the plastic bits such as the spoiler, bumpers and badges, if ur planning on spraying them, then maybe the tints aren't such a good idea! how loud are we talking with the exhaust, i am looking to get one soon and am worried about how loud it will be! i think i am going for a cat back!

I think your car looks the nuts in the top picture, the tailpipe looks spot on as do the clusters.

Perhaps look at getting some Brown Bread under the seats?

Digging the clusters, but the tailpipe...

Don't know. I like them hidden. Or stock.

Don't like noise either. Are we old?

If you want a quiet Mk3 exhaust go for either a Jetex, Remus, Sebring or Supersprint.
