Re: Oh, yes...................................

that looks great , what was the price if you dont mind me asking?
 
Well i was 1st prize winner at a event at ExhaustUK (Plug) and won 350 notes voucher but i put 100 towards it from car back and irs sounds awasome ;) so all told it was 450 and yeah they are both working pipes and flow equal top job (y)
 
How did they get around the fact that the right hand pipe goes right by the fuel lines ?
I was going to get twin pipes but was advised by a number of places that it would be a danger because of the heat right next to the fuel line. They all said it could be done but was not advisable.

They Look nice but
IMO you need a splitter/deeper bumper to surround those pipes as they look a bit awkward, like they are not really meant to be there... Im not trying to be funny here, im just trying to advise.
 
I cant remember what grade of Stainless steel it is now but it dont get really hot at all i drove 40 + miles on it show my folks and my dad (like a fart) went up and touched the pipes and held his hand on and was cold. Did see where u mean about the fuel lines but the totally outer the way as i saw the car being done from start to end and they did a top job

Could be because Stilojoe's is a different model to your Abarth. Personally I prefer what you have already Koa. :)

I'm glad it turned out that way now myself, when they first tried the exhaust against the car I knew i was making the right choice, it just looked right.
The problem is when you have a twin outlet fitted, the exhaust has to come out in a straight line so they are parallel with each other and then because of that they have to stick out further to get the clearance from the back bumper. Which IMO makes them look a bit awkward.
The Stilos bumper in its original form is very rounded underneath so the pipes look better at an angle, and the best way to do the twin outlets is if you buy a rear bumper that hides the curve of the original.
Like so....

Nice picture I wonder where you got that from. :D
 
The exhaust look good, maybe not my own choice but they still look nice! I like the tailpipe choice you have chosen, i like the same design but not lipped upwards, and just the 1 tailpipe for me when i get the cash together! Have had all me rub strips colour coded so i got wait abit now for the zort! Sweet (y)
 
Now that we'ren on the subject, i have to mention that just yesterday i saw a Stilo on the road with a beautiful exhaust. It was a pretty generous single exhaust thet came out right in the middle (not at the bottom, with bumper all around it) of a custom made back bumper, it was absolutelly beautiful!!!!
Sorry i wasn't able to take any pictures but i eas in the middle of a roundabout and almost drove straight off it as soon i saw the Stilo, i almost went after him to ask im where he had had it done!!!!
I really liked it 'cause it was suchan impecable job, the kind of thing you could see in a motor show presented by the own brand.
If i see it again i'll try to get a pic (and i'll chase the guy to ask him where he got it)
