Who fitted it?

David Blunket

That would be Mr Underhand then

Milltek avant systems do stick out miles. When mine was fitted we pushed it back as far as it would go and it still looks too long.

It all needs to come off and be realigned after I battered it in Wales last week so I'll probably shorten the rear box pipe to make it sit better while it's all off.

Got the full Milltek coupe system here - doesn't stick out much at all. Wonder if it was the aforementioned D. Blunkett who did the measurements for the avant one.

Ck.

I agree. It sticks out for miles! Just think of it as a reversing sensor. When you hear the grinding of metal....you've hit something. But at least your bumper is OK!

How have you managed to get one side of your car soooo dirty and yet keep the other soooo clean?!?

[Keeper of The Kitten]

Correct me if I am wrong - but doesn't that contravene regulations?

I mean the exhaust sticking out, not the dirt!

The bumper does actually stick out further than the exhaust. Its just higher up, so the exhaust looks a lot worse than it actually is.

[Keeper of The Kitten]

Yep, agreed - shadowed in plan view I think is the normal opinion - but I haven't found a law about it yet anyway.
