Done Did you guys have a spare piece of mounting bracket?

Hey MIM,

That's nice but i think it's too long to be used on the stock bumper, but with the Aerokit bumper..it looks awesome!

Btw, how much did you pay for it and where? I want to get it too!

I got them from BMW/MINI. They cost me $100.

Still toying with the idea of fitting these to my car but I am not sure how they attach and what work is involved, do you just hacksaw the old exhaust off and clamp them on over the old one?

Roland of GTT said that he was looking at producing these items himself but he had concerns about them falling off (or words to that effect).

Could someone post a step by step fitting guide with photo's and give an opinion on security.

Does this modification change the exhaust note? Our car started life as a 170 BHP 2005 model until Roland of GTT placed his hands on it, it's now 230 BHP but the exhaust still has a popping noise on the overrun and I would hate to loose that because it sounds fantastic.

The tips are attached by a couple of screws / bolts (allen key) that clamp onto the exhaust (same as the original tips). It's really easy to fit, just get underneath and have a look. I had the same concerns about them falling off - just made sure that the screws are tight.

Good Luck
