Hi All,
Has anyone done any work on their exhaust to improve the appearance of the rear pipes - for example making them look like the "modern" TVR's which all seem to have chome pipes/tips.
Has anyone done something similar to their Chimaera, where did you source the parts and can you share any pics with me ?

Apologies to all you purists out there, this is merely a consideration of mine and my own personal view is that it has the potential - if done right - to improve the rear of the car even more.
Many thanks.

Aren't they stainless steel?

Should polish up nicely.

Some modify the exhaust and up size the rear tailpipes slightly which does look better in my opinion, seems to fill the holes better.
Most prefer the subtle look like me rather than the cans that only suit certain cars, anything is possible though.

I guess am thinking more along the lines of this:

Although this looks as though it has had some body work done to accommodate the bigger pipes along the rear bumber.....
I really just want to smarten the rear-exhaust look without any major modification.

Anyone on here own this car - I do like it.........

Any decent exhaust shop can mod the tailpipes for you to your taste.
That particular car must have sold quite recently, it was up for sale for a while.
Glad someone bought it as I kept looking at it!
Someone got a cracker there.

Ha - so right Belle - I enquired about it before I bought the one I now own. It was up for sale for at least 9 months or so I'd say...........if not longer...
