Haha might need a few tubs of paste to fix those holes  :laugh:

How much would I be looking at getting a new exhaust and for it to be fitted?

Just a normal exhaust will do me, got no money at the moment, so as cheap as I can that does the job

Cheapest would be to get it welded, but looks pretty bad as its on the seam, did you hit a speed hump or something?

Just get the tip welded? Are you not seeing the great big hole in the backbox itself?!

I wouldn't have that welded back up, looks beyond saving. Just get a new backbox.

Thanks for the offer mate! Needed to get it done by today though as going away for the weekend. Set me back a hell of a lot of money though  :angry:
