:question:I need help on where to buy a new backbox. I have a 2008 1.4 petrol and I want it to have a bit of sound and I was wondering what some other people have done to add a new backbox, I did want to put a japcan on it but it's just such a weird design the pipe after the backbox goes over the rear subframe so I would have to cut out my muffler weld a straight pipe in replacement and cut and weld a tip on the end of the original pipe and then either extend my exhaust hanger so the tip isn't in the back of the bumper or cut a hole in my bumper for it. I would like to keep this as cheap as possible and I don't know what to do its just such an odd design having the backbox so far forward in the car and just the way the pipe bends its odd. Someone help me out give me an idea or suggest a product u bought please 🙏
