Could you fit them and show pics, I want a FMIC but would have to be more discreet.

I dont think there is away of making the pipes discreet as they sit proud of the vent cut out,  We cut the vent to fill the gap but it did not look to good. We will be playing with the FMIC design over the next few weeks. This week should see one of our the custom exhausts on my car :rolleyes:

Well spotted m8, I have changed the osf and nsr wheels around to try and find which wheel is causing me a vibration at around 80mph.  Thanks for the saftey pointer m8 :wink:
