So today I've jacked the back of the car up and took both rear wheels off. I've got drilled and grooved Mtec discs to go on the back with Mintex pads, so I've painted the disc centres, spacers and the brake calipers all black with Simoniz Engine Enamel. While I was waiting for the first coat to dry I crawled underneath and had a look at the sticky out exhaust.
The backbox was already slid on as far as it'd go, so I got the angle grinder out and took an inch off the centre section. The stainless pipe is pretty thick and good quality hardened steel, so took a while to get through it but I got there and it looks a lot better all reassembled now.
I'm letting the paint dry properly on the brakes overnight tonight then I'll be cracking on with changing the discs and pads tomorrow. I'll get some pictures of everything then for a decent update.
