JordanVW Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 if you de-cat its illegal, you can only decat cars before 1992 i believe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eurosa Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 same boat as you before i took the wheels off for winter.. Ripped off the cover taking the Mrs to college, scraping wasnt Too bad after that but it still caught. Would be good to see if people have clever ideas as de cat on 1l is not going to happen for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curtis Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 http://www.taildevil.com/tail-devil-black/Secure a couple of these badboys to the box, When it does hit, the box is protected, and you'll throw some mean sparks when you do!

eurosa Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 love that idea. How much would it work as protection though? Fit and find out job me thinks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshuaar Posted January 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 I had it sorted in the end mate, went de cat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HalfOfZero Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 I was just about to say, could do a a skid pan type box/cover?Let's face it, you're options aren't exactly vast here. You're cars low, and somethin underneath is hitting the ground. Raise the car, or remove said part, or if it's possible, get a small part to replace it.. Or cover it with something to take the hit instead. And I think that's maybe it.Or relocate your entire exhaust system. To the side perhaps?

eurosa Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 hmm replace or remove.. anyone know of smaller cats available i have just had cat back exhaust replaced, not feeling a de cat for MOT purposes or the fact it might be a tad loud and not moving fast.. at all?
