Exhaust Defect/lowness "Warning"
Hey guys,
Had a run in with the police last night they pulled me over for a "random" breath test. After breezing through that they decided to inspect my car for the next 30 minutes. Popped my bonnet and they found nothing as the guy barely new his way around the engine bay. This was followed by "mate your car is too low, I don't have my measuring tools but it's definitely too low, also these exhaust tips, going to have to get them fixed mate, they have to sit flush with your rear guard they can't stick out like that". I won't give you a sticker tonight but get it fixed. I believe the lowest part of the car is allowed to be 100mm off the ground (correct me if I'm wrong) the problem I face is that all though the rest of the exhaust sits at the correct height but it drops below legal where the 'Y' pipe splits off. I have an Ultrex full Catback exhaust, anyone else had any run ins? Basically, after I have wasted the last 5 minutes of your life listing to me dabble. Anyone want to recommend me an exhaust shop that I can get some custom work done to get that Y pipe sitting higher as well as dropping those tips in a little deeper. And if anyone has had this happen before how much am I looking at? I wish to avoid police attention as much as much as possible, difficult in a red car but ah well. Picture of the exhaust tips in question. Thankyou in advance for reading through my dribble. |
