Replacment rear exhaust box for R19...

My 19 Cabriolet 8v needs a new rear exhaust and I thought I might get a nicer looking one than the standard box.
I don't want a dustbin sized thing that sounds stupid but I would like to fit something a nicer sounding that don't cost the earth.

Does anyone know of a suitable one and the best place to get from..?

you must have a local powerflow/exhausts UK etc. agent

they'll make up exactly what you want, and unless you have a skyline you wont notice any performance gains/losses as its just a backbox so everyone is a winner

i don't know where you live rules and the emission rules but over here in my country i did get a custom build back box, you see if the exhaust system of your is actually intact and the catalytic converter is fine you might try to get your self a custom built rear box which shouldn't cost at all...

i get mine for 150 Egyptian pounds which is like 15 UK pounds and it's really looks nice, genuine and also sounds great...but no performance gain so

I've only got a couple of Kwik Fits in my local area and they are about as expensive a bunch of cowboys as your ever likely to meet..
I was hoping someone knew of a great place online where they bought theirs from and could recommend or if someone here had one for sale..?
