How ya doing mate. I put 1 on mine and they put the cross section before the wheel well. but depending on size of exhausts they may need to hit the well in a bit so to make it fit and so it doesnt bang off it, if ya get me.

Jay has a prowler wide rear similar to yours and he has had loads of problems trying to get a single to fit right let alone a twin sided, his research has shown it can be done if you are prepared to cut your wheel well out and weld a plate across and/or, you have an unlimited budget for the fit. He has also had to grind out more of the kit too.
I would really suggest you find a place local to you that can make and fit before you commit to buy. It's an expensive mistake if you don't.

cut well out (all or some of it) or bring the pipe round the back of it

i had a look today when i was taking out the back box and put some flexy pipe in its place and put a stainless tail on it and there aint a lot of room on the other side cos of the rear coil sping. looks like ill have to grind the wheel well or drill hole and take it through the boot or something

 how nice does that look
did your fuel pipes get in the way or anything?
o by the way have you got a cardomain prowler?
where abouts did you refit your side repeater?

I don't know if you would consider a centre exit at all, but i think they can look good as well. I made the pipe fit around my wheel well rather than cut it out.

on my old corsa i cut out the wheel wel. not a difficult job and will be loads cheaper than a custom exhaust to bend around it

iwould do it myself out of flexy pipe as its under the car you wont see it then ill weld a tail pipe on to it easy just think its gonna be a bit of a squeeze cos of the fuel pipes and susspention coil and wheel well are right in the way think i can just get above it but there will be a hell of a bend on it though. i would have exit in the centre but was gonna move the reg plate there as it looks a little silly on the rear window dont u think?
