Piper don't really do cheap :/ . However once you get the product and see how good the quality is , the amount you spent won't bother you

I paid £150 for my magnex one 4 and a half years ago so £168 isn't too bad then if you look at it that way.
They dont list the 3" outward rolled one for a 1.6 16v but do for the 1.2/1.4 8v but they are the same fitment tho aint they?

Yeah can't see it being a different fitment from the 1.4 mark , when I bought my system it didn't even specify what liter the car was but it fitted like a dream

. Were are you buying the backbox from mate ? Tbh all places that sell piper are relitavely the same price , even on CCUK with the club discount there's not much of a saving . Think for a whole system mine was about 350 and that was off of ebay ! But places like Demontweeks and venom are slightly dearer but not much .

with piper they give you a list of tips that will fit on your model, and you just select the tip you want

I'd say that was 3.5 mark. This is 3" outward rolled with the same bumper to give you an idea. Does look bigger than mine

Both look smart lyk but can't decide whether to go go for the 3.5" or 3".I dont want it to look small or too big if you get me.
This is my rear at the moment.

I quite like the look of the 3.5" inward rolled.
What do you think?
Here is a pic and a vid above of a 3.5" inward rolled on a corsa D.Sounds sweet even on a 1.2.

I've never been that keen on inwardly rolled tips personally Heres mine with its 3.5" inwardly rolled tip + standard bumper to give you a better idea of how it could look on yours

I think it looks nice that Shaun.
I think a 3.5 outward rolled may look a little too big.
