VR6 0 Posted June 25, 2005 Yep - complete URGH! IMHO Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rustynuts 0 Posted June 25, 2005 I had one on my last C that lasted 4 days of ownership, sadly the photos i have do not really show the exhaust in its full lack of glory. I actually still have the exhaust from stripping the car and am going to sell it once i have cut the sticky up ends off it. My advise is that they don't really fit the rear bumper apperture, and do not really look that good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ben16v 0 Posted June 25, 2005 i`ve got janspeed DTM style on my car (was on when i bought it ) i think it looks okay cars minging dirty but it all polishes up nicely (and exhaust) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A9X SJ 0 Posted June 25, 2005 Was'nt intending too but it is going cheap thought it would be ok for short term Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaveStorm 0 Posted June 25, 2005 ben16v yours look ok actually, the ones that look nasty are the huge bore twin upswept ones that go halfway up the bumper! Don't do it A9X SJ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ben16v 0 Posted June 25, 2005 DaveStorm, thanks, it wouldn`t be one i chose but it has been fine for the last 5 years so i`m not gonna knock it! i know what the others think about the `big bore` style ones..... they are wank!!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
olly elworthy 0 Posted June 26, 2005 my car had a nasty scorpin dtm on it when i got it, so i removed the box, chopped off the dtm`s with a 9" angle grinder, and replaced them with two straight pieces of 3" polished stainless steel tube,,, much better now,, dtm was awfull came halfway up the bumper on a terrible angle,, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted June 26, 2005 Had one already fitted on my fist valver- didn't look too bad (maybe a bit chavvy) but it knocked the whole time and was starting to melt the bumper! Changed it for an oval Magnex 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MattWilde 10 Posted June 26, 2005 yep, got a scorpion on mine, but it was £25 and the bosal job that the car came with when i bought it was rotten. knocks a bit when cold and sits at a nasty angle, will get it changed when i have the dosh Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted June 26, 2005 Here was mine - needles to say it was ditched within a week of buying the car, it was a full Scorpion system and actually quite quiet, just looked totally wrong Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris VR6nos 0 Posted June 26, 2005 I've had these DTM type tail pipes for a few years and i like them, it blows smoke ring on a cold morning up past the rear window, it makes me smile and it's old skool type racing style and i'm one of the older members so i'm happy with it at the moment though i am interested in changing to a certain other style in the future.
