I am looking for the exhaust tail pipe `finisher or trim`, It is of course the twin outlet version. I wondered if anybody who has upgraded to the four pipe exhaust system now has one of these collecting dust? :thumbup:

Hi, nice one :thumbup: looks good I've thought of doing the same how did you mount it? Is it a dummy or have you had a custom exhaust fitted to in? :eusa-think:

Well my initial thoughts about this was if ever a car suited quad pipes, this is it!

Looking at the custom made ones at around £300, which to me don`t have any advantage, either in power or anything else come to that, they maybe a lot noisier. So my thoughts went towards creating a dummy twin on the O/S. New from Peugeot the tail pipe finishers are around £150, but with a question on here in the for sale and wanted, I got hold of a second hand set.

Fitting was a case of removing the lower rear bumper section complete with fog light/ reverse light unit. Using stainless steel strip to make a couple of right angle brackets and secured with nuts and bolts through the rear part of the spare wheel well. Then used what had now become a spare captivated nut for the bumper section for a small shaped lower steady piece. Using a template made from the original N/S cut out for the exhaust, I cut out a matching piece for the new O/S dummy.

The photograph I took perhaps didn`t show it at its best, the used finisher I think came off a petrol car and there was a certain amount of staining on the lower part of each pipe, this has now been polished out and both look as good as new.
