That exhaust is so shiny it is a shame it is hidden under the car!My experience is that RRP do great products and offer excellent service/advice.

So MX5/RX8 updates!The MX5 is back with Eibachs (same as Mazda lowering springs just in an Eibach box), alignment and rust protection (Waxoiling). So here is a before:Here it is after:Much better to drive, the car feel so much more agile with the body roll dialed down and alignment making it a much better steer. Obviously it also looks goooood a tad lower!There was a small issue though, when I was taken to the car there is now a new dent by the drivers door handle and scratch which is a good 10cm long from where the window meets the body down towards the handle. The garage has instantly said they will correct this, so it means I've got to give her back to get it sorted. My detailer has said he will check the repair work for me as it will need reprotecting after the work.RX8 is now sporting a new voice box.Resonated 200cell sports cat and back box has been fitted. Unfortunately the sports cat also needed some modifying to fit as it seems to have come off the jig a little bent at the manifold join which magnifies the fitment issue at the end. But the company I bought it from agreed to honour the warranty on the section even with it modified, so at least there was that.The backbox is for a series 1 RX8 so this needed some altering. 1 hanger needed to be replaced and moved, the tailpipes which are modular had to have a section replaced and modified to angle down slightly as the R3's tailpipes are 3cms lower than the S1. Here are a few photos.While not being the prettiest welds this photo shows the slight alteration needed to those sleved sections coming out from the rear box. Drop down at an angle to then exit the bumper. If I ever want them made pretty then they are just a clamped section.All in all, second hand exhaust and the cost of alteration and fitting was still cheaper than buying one of the ready made R3 exhausts from the aftermarket. While having the added bonus of having a dual resonated decat section should I ever fancy going down that route.Also the cheap E
