How DIY Tailpipe/Tail adapter/Muffler Cover

[loose_end]

To install an average size tail pipe , since the skirting is blocking the tail pipe,i can't install the tail pipe,it will be half way out , therefore , i can't install it perfectly..In addition , the orginal exhaust pipe from the muffler is too long..

So,How to DIY??

1) How do i cut the skirting(PU)?..What tools should i use..??

2) Can i cut the exhaust pipe to shorten it??Will it have any effect??

bring to exhaust shop bro, i doubt u have the right tools. even if u did, would u risk damaging ur skirt/exhaust to save that lil bit of cash?

anyway, i dun think shortening the pipe (from what i udnerstand, the tip of the exhaust right?) will have any effect...

just my 2 cents

The end of the exhaust is too long / too out

So , I would have to cut it

After cutting , the remaining piece

Then , I install the muffler cover

Wow nice work on the http://www.racepages.com/parts/tail_pipe.html bro. I want to try do like this before on my own but I'm afraid it'll mess up so I ended up bringing it to the mechanic. Nice job.
