ye i did price some uop and they were stupid money , i might put a request in the photoshop section to see it somebody can show me what it would look like as the vinyl is stupid money also , i like the idea tho , when i have more funds i might have a bash  there are a few bits of the car id like to rewrap like the front bumper area , by the way hunty i seen your thread where you put up a choice of grills and i think you should put the proper grill on looked mint |

Well finaly getting around to fitting my new (coedys old) exhaust looks like I've got to get a new y piece as mine is in a mess , then I have to get the correct size coupler , cut the link pipe in the right place to accomodate the length the coupler takes up , hoapfully get it fitted soon as there is a chance I could pass my test in a week or so , if not up just chuck the old one on for now , Attachments:

Good luck with your test man!
Looks so much nicer not hidden under a bumper!
Do they not do larger ypieces?
If the Ypiecer and coupler is going to cost around £40 I would just get a large bore Manifold... Although it wont help a 998... (like mine lol)

Thanks for the luck boys :-)
Really need to get hold of a garage as I have spotted some rusty bits on the car now :-( not happy at all. There must be somebody on HENDY with a garage they are not using but I can't seem to find them lol, I've got notices up in the shop and evrything , hoapfully some luck will come my way this week and Il find one. If the car fails on rust next mot the vinyls coming off ,new panels and a nice spray job is on the cards :-) thinking of 'ST blue' with candy white wheels :-)

You could always get an outdoor fitted "Monsoon Storm" Cover for it Gav.  Completely waterproof and will last you at least 5 or so winters.   When my Mini is out of the garage it usually lives under one of those.  Cost me £70 ish on fleabay as far as I can remember. |

Make sure its a breathable one though! Otherwise youll get condensation and dampness collecting under it which may make things worse!
