I was just gonna weld an extension off the tailpipe to bring it more central. I'd go for the single exit not the twin, although the twin would look good!

And I thought I was the only one with that idea! Still, if I do some serious body work, I will do it. I can't decide if I like smoothed bumpers - I look at Alun's and think it looks the nuts, but I like the strips too :shock:

yea since i had the idea been driving around looking at TT's on the road and their rear bumpers... i thought only the 3.2 V6 TT's had the honeycomb rear grills, and that it was only dual exit.. surprised that there's single tailpipe one!

I'm pretty sure they don't but you can buy them, they just clip in.

The 3.2 Quattro's are the only ones afaik that came with it as standard.

I think to have the exhausts situated like that you're gonna have to lose the spare whel recess & there will have to be some major cutting away of metal!
It would be poss to run 2 pipes out the back, but further apart than the TT style i reckon. 1 where the original pipe is & the other would mean losing the tow eye.
This is what i could only do on my mk4
