Was just wondering if it is possible to put a Play Mini stainless steel Supersport twin exhaust system pictured below on a clubby estate?

Does it need modding due to spare wheel, etc? Are these exhaust parts available from shops or do they need DIY customising? If so what will it involve?

Hope you guys can help me out.

Cheers!

you might have trouble with the fuel tank :smartass:

as the tanks shorter on one side for the exhaust and if you go under the tank its going to be near the ground

Why?!

Makes them look like a wheel barrow and does nothing for your engine.

But yes you will have fuel tank issues too.

my mini jem has a spare wheel well and an estate fuel tank.
the only mods i had to do to the rc40 i fitted was to get the tailpipe extended by about 5", so it came out past the tank.
you may have to do something similar to that playmini one.
it shouldn't cost a lot, i had my tailpipe done at a local racecar place (stainless tailpipe, extended with a piece of stainless), and it only cost a fiver.
