can anyone help central belters maybe

I have the new Cooper S chrome tail pipe.

Wanted to fit it to my cooper.

However once we got the current chrome trim off we realised the Cooper exhaust pipe is bigger than what the S tail pipe is.

The chrome pipe will not fit over it's to small by about 3mm. so needing big heavy duty metal cutters or angle grinder to make a couple of slits in the exhaust pipe so we can re shape it. Hopefully this would work well Allan seems to think so.

Anyone got this type of equipment .???

i have a angle grinder if u want a shot of it just a hand one tho small ish

Ditto to Stone - got a 6" angle grinder your welcome to borrow Fi.

I reckon a good hacksaw would do the job Fi, but, not sure if you'd be happy with the way both ideas would work.
I would recommend taking your car to a recognised exhaust place (same place as Vidal took his car) get them to remove the tail pipe completely and then weld on a better sized pipe for the Chrome one you have to fit better ;)
I know that's what i would do.

Any slits in the pipe will allow exhaust gases to leak past and potentially cause a leak type sound :p

I agree with BS on this one Fi, and that hurts for me to say! ;)
