or you could have a silencer... but i dont understand why people put them at the back???

why not have a long thin one in the middle and just run pipe to where ever you want?

i back box is a silancer O.o people put them at the back on some cars because there not engough space to house a big big silancer in the exhaust channel...

all you need is cat back without silancer (silancers cost alot at custom exhaust places :S) so its also a cheaper option without. you will still have your cat/cats in place and a back box so it shouldnt be to loud.

by the looks of things a back box wont fit with that bumper :( so it might have to have its tip lenghthed so it comes out the bumper if you get me? lol

quite like the look of these though something diffrent

They would look good. Since its the bumper I had on mine and I had a 4" slash cut savage back box on.

right small update but no pics i`ll get some in the morning my hand was feeling better so i strapped it up and went out to try and get the front bumper sorted thinking i`d have plenty of time in the 5 hours i had to get the job done

ha how wrong i was started well till i tried to remove the archliners to get at the bolts joining the bumper to the wing i`d have rather removed the bumper and both wings the amount of trouble it took how many hidden clips did nissan want to put in them then there was a hidden bolt that the manual didn`t tell me about finally got the old one off just as it was getting dark so my car is currently sitting with no bumper indicators or foglights on it looks quite nice

oh and i noticed a dent in the drivers door today small but still noticeable :grrr

hmm new mod dechromed indicator grills now i`m gonna fill in the gap where the chrome came out from but what colour does anyone think ??

i`m thinking either bodycoloured or gloss black like the mesh although i`m tempted to leave the rad on show you`ll see what i mean when i get pics in the morning so silver is also an option
