Pics show the pipe shape and where I cut it from the full exhaust.
am confused. Can this be fitted or have I wasted my money on this exhaust?

According to the picture you posted, the exhaust was cut on the wrong area.... look closely you should see a dimple 3" to 4" from where its cut. That were should be cut
Then look at your 328i exhaust should have the same dipple... I just hope you haven't cut it yet on the wrong spot or else you need some exhaust shop to install this by welding.
Good luck |
Where about a roughly in my pic of the full exhaust system. Yes it's already cut. Based on the advice of the garage. Most exhausts for sale in UK are cut just after the box? So I left more.
