How does it sound jay, is it as good as a gm system and was the fit  ok, or did you need to adjust it at all. if it  is good then that would be an option against a gm system. Depending on cost of course. :y

it went straight on.....no adjustment needed.....

One thing i noticed the tailpipes are a little short of the bumper, it's only a visual thing.....

it is slightly louder than a geniune system but seeing as it was a fraction of the cost i can live with that  :y

Does it look silly jay, as i am sure it was proud of the rear apron on the car it came off, but if it does the job. I will be interested to see what mileage you get from it as you do get the system very hot on your motoring escapades, and they love being hot to burn any condensation off.
