Backbox delete pipes
Hi All
Backbox delete pipes for sale in stainless steel
bought them on here a couple of weeks back - unfortunately they didn't fit my 2.2 properly, as they came from a 3.0. I also didn't like how loud they were, so have now had a custom backbox fitted which is more to my liking.
Will put some photo's up this week, but any questions just PM me or reply here.
Looking for offers around £80.....comes with clamps
Cheers
Paul

You can't seriously expect forum members to pay for your installation costs, poor show & not in the spirit of the forum imhojpvd wrote:Hi all...still have these if interested and yes they did sell at £60, but it cost me in installation costs, so trying to recoupe some cost.....if you goto a exhaust shop it would cost around £100-150 to have these made so still good value.....

Beat me to it - Although, I would have said "you expect someone else to pay for YOUR mistake???"

seriously gents....can we stop the bitching....this is why i hate these forums sometimes....
if anyone wants to make an offer then no problem.... i'm not being funny here but i bought it from a guy on this forum and it turned out to be a waste of money for me...my fault...but if anyone wants to buy it for the price i paid then they can offer it.....
mines the 2.2 and it wasn't a straight fit like i hoped and it would have required some cutting and welding.... but it is stainless and great condition.... I ran it for a couple of days, with it simply bolted, but it didn't look right (projected too far out) and was too loud. So I had it removed and went for a custom built system from exhaustsuk in sheffield (formerly ascar). They did an awesome job and it sounds exactly how i like it now and looks great.....so really happy with it now....
it will go on ebay next week if no-one is interested....
cheers

The "bitching" you are receiving is because your trying to gain money out of forum members for an item you obviously paid less for. If your forum behaviour has been like this on other forums i can see why you think they suck. If that's the case sell your stuff elsewhere.jpvd wrote:seriously gents....can we stop the bitching....this is why i hate these forums sometimes....
If you drove out to the shops to buy a TV but didn't like it, would you then sell it for more than you bought it for to "cover" petrol costs?
What the forum is trying to tell you here is either advertise them for the same price or lower. I don't think you'll get any takers at £80 knowing you bought for less.

have you actually read "all" my response above?.....i'm not trying to rip anybody off, so please stop accusing me of doing so....its all getting a bit ridiculous now..
what i hate about some forums i used to use (many, many years ago when i built track and rally cars) is there is always a group of keyboard warriors who love to talk everybody else down, bitch and moan...you have made your point - i have taken it on board and i have explained that above.... now move on.....i am sure there are more important things to worry about than how much i am selling a set of pipes for on online forum....
cheers

While I agree you should be able to set the price you want to sell an item, you have to remember a couple of things:
1. Yes this is forum, but in my 12 months of being on here I've found it to be more like a club, and you don't rip off members of your team...in fact, quite the opposite - you help them out where you can. You never know when you might need their help...that is one of the reasons I always sell my items lower than I would put them up on eBay.
2. You're selling to fellow enthusiasts - so what if you lose a buck or two...at least you'll know its gone to someone who is going to use it and enjoy it, and not looking to make money out of you (as can be the case on eBay or Gumtree).
Thats my 2p for what its worth.
