Magnex 2x3.5 - any cut-in pics

[Gary Brown]

Ive got a magnex ss cat back system on my 172 cup with the twin round pipes. It sounds great but looks pants because it looks so "after market" - ie it isnt integrated with the bumper.

I want to rectify this and raise the exhaust into the bumper by cutting out about 2-3cm of plastic. Has anyone done this, and if so can you post up some pics please?

Cheers

@ Gary brown - One of the members LEWY had the same system on his and he got the pipe cut so the exhaust sat flush with the bumper, he didnt even have to cut the bumper. I saw it and it whoever did it did a very good job. I dont know if he has any pics of it but he was trying to sell the system for a while on here ( i think he has got rid of it now) but you can ask him by sending him a PM probably.

I had a 3" round pipe cut into my bumper on my old Dyanamique.

Just to give you an idea of how it should be done.

Back on topic!.....dutty has a Magnex twin 3.5" When we fitted his we added an extra hanger to straighten the can and to stop it from rattling like a b*tch. Looks great now its fitted right!

Here you go....found a pic of his Dynamique and my 172.

my magnex twin has just been put on and its sitting too low, needs pushing up to the bumper

I have got the mongoose twin 3.5 round and mine hung low so i changed the rear exhaust bush for a shorter poly bush,it pulled the tailpipes up to the bottom of the bumber and reduced movement of the exhaust massively

Got a Magnex Oval and it knocks against the bumper going over bumps but never when driving.

does anybody know how to get the magnex twin moved up next to the bumper?
