    Yeah, agreed that the left factory exhaust doesnt match the custom fitted right. Also take note that the entire black plastic section under the bumpers has been removed (thus the visible spare wheel well). The stock ones are slightly staggered and angle cut. So the only solution is probably to replace both with un-staggered twin tip exhausts.

    The biggest question you would face is the cross over pipe to the right hand side exhaust - as this will affect your exhaust pressure. In most cases you actually get a loss of performance from the cross over pipe. So you have to ask yourself - is this really worth it?

    its also possible that the extras are dummies just placed there for the look - easy to spot when you look at the inside of the exhaust tips ie the ones really working would be burning black or grey - any dummy ones would be perfectly clean

    i reckon quad exhausts are a little stupid.. in fact quite stupid.
