At the moment money is tight! However i want my car to look like it has a twin exhaust. Eventually ill get a proper twin exhaust but for now iv seen the tip versions, my only problem is that the tip of my exhaust pipe bends at the end so when you put the tip on the tip will slope downwards. What would o have to do to get the tip to go straight as aposed to slanted?

only way is to hack the slope off i think? will look terrible if you go back to standard again and the tip of the standard exhaust might rust over time

am i able to lower the exhaust box in anyway? that way i can put the tip on properally ans it will miss the bumper, most of all wont need to cut the end off the exhaust

hmmm you can make the box sit higher by stiffer rubber mounts but to make it hang lower lol suppose you can bodge some thick cable ties to replace the rubber mounts so you can adjust the hieght exactly where u want it. only thing is it will look ridiculous every bump you go over it will shake around.
i'd say you mayaswell leave it without a tip until later. those tips never fool anyone lets be honest

Save up for the real thing mate, or fit lexus lights with the fake exhaust...
If its cheap exhuats system you want fit a supersprint race system, that would fool a few people wen they saw a 1.1 drive past that sounded amazing.
And tbh when you try and line twin exhausts up they never seem to site level or equally apart so they dont look the best, and also imo twin exhausts on a saxo is too much as its a small car it just looks out of place.
