Downpipes on amazon

[Blacross]

Didn't want to post a link to a sale, so I'll attach a pic.

Thoughts on this downpipe? Same as any other?

I have these exact ones and bolted right up with no problems.

the seller made it sound like there may be install issues. They ARE very inexpensive.

I bought them, had them ceramic coated and tried to install. Messed with them for 8 hours, even ended up cutting off the brackets completely because fitment was so bad. Even with brackets cut off, the end of the downpipe had too much sticking out and wasn't mating withexhaust because it would hit the inside wall where the exhaust turns. They can be made to work but require trimming about 1" off of the end on the passenger side, along with lots of modification to the brackets. I ended up gutting my OEM downpipes and absolutely love the setup now

THANK YOU, you just saved me some time and money

Just look for some used OEM downpipes and gut them. No fitment issues and they are already double walled.

I picked up a set for $350 off of eBay a few months ago. Took me 15 minutes to remove the catalyst.

^^ This. Can't beat OEM fitment and quality.

DP from ebay is very tricky ... Sometimes it fits and thats great, but when it doesnt you just wasted ~ $400 in labor
