Yea its a 3.5 and its far from a fart can lol... I'm not to keen on cutting a slit in the bumper and this was a quick fix to the hole that was in my middle section, so this is on there til I can afford a middle section to replace it. Also the bumper goes up abit so im aiming to pull it to the left so it fits in there.

This is my first car and my first time putting an exhaust on so im open to suggestions that don't involve cutting the bumper (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif)

1) Go to a scrap yard
2) Find dead 106 (there's plenty)
3) Cut hole in that bumper
4) Keep original bumper in the garage
5) ????
6) Profit

I'm going to guess that the heat will melt those cable ties... unless non turbo cars don't get that hot... I know mine would melt anything you put on it.

This one looks pretty nice. Engine? Seems to be a 1.6
Change the rims. Add some 16" and low it. And dont forget some Peugeot
sport decals!

Its a 1.1 with a leaky cam cover seal.

I wanna keep it pretty stock with some cool bits, I got a twin air horn on a separate switch. Id like to strip it out but I have to carry alot around to it would all be on show...

With the cable ties there not wrapped round the back box but on a mounting point that's quite badly welded on but I didnt do it. I did stop yesterday after driving for a while and the closest ones were still cold but the tip was really hot so should be fine.
i bought a long exhaust rubber mount for halfords but on mount was to far away and the other was to close so the cable ties are going to have to do for now
Which halfords do U work at curtis?

If you want to paint something, go to a proper auto paint shop. They'll match the colour perfectly.

I went to my local halfords before work yesterday and asked if they could mix paint to match my car, but they said they couldn't, which I don't believe them...

Got a 100 out of it yesterday first time in that car quite pleased (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toothygrin.gif)

They're chatting s**t mate. Probably don't have anyone trained to do it, but they can.

http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/...tegoryId=245215

just print that page and be like, explain yourselves! Click on the link near the bottom of the page and it should take you to a store that has the capacity to do it. Just need to head over to the parts desk

Meh. I just would rather trust someone who's been in the paint business their whole lives than someone who's been trained for half a day to operate a machine..

nahh, i mean the pre-made ones, they're bang on. I'd always be a bit wary of the custom made ones, but if you test it on a small area, and it is s**t, they'll either refund or remake it for you
