Sorry ruby, 0/10 for observation there.


"............ the Venom parts are only put into the Chemicals once,where as the Motad pipes go in twice to ensure a more even shiny finish"


No worries. But you gleaned a bit more information than I did, the bit above about the chemical finish. When I was there I was shown the down tubes and I did feel that the shiny finish wasn't quite as shiny as it could have been. That would explain it. Hopefully a bit of polishing would make them shinier. I plan on ordering some for my project once I get the suspension sorted.

I just ordered a set of Venom downpipes, total cost £152.85 as Yamazer says. Should ship today, tomorrow latest. So far so good.  :)

Now to sort that snapped stud, No. 3 cylinder just like Hightower.  :'(

Go down the Rivet nut route if there's still a lot of stud left.

I bought a Teng tools stud extractor, it worked very well with a bit of penetrating oil and got the stud out with minimal fuss. I've fitted the replacement stud and now waiting for the delivery of shiny new downpipes.  :z
