Hello All,
My wife (well I will blame her) knocked the rear exhaust box (IS 200 SE Y plate 2001) and it has moved out of position.
I eventually noticed when it had burnt the rear bumper round the exhaust.
Had Lexus have a look, and they have said rear exhaust box is bent - will require a new exhaust box. I has gone in and up to the right, so the exhaust is behind the bumper and to the right, so about a 1/5th is behind the bumper hence the burning.....
Cost £211
Labout £115
Total inc vat £326.50
Over the years been ripped of by our friendly Kwik Fit Fitters so dont fancy going down that route, could do if reasonable - just dont like them.
I am going to have a look this weekend and see if I can "unbend" it.
I was wondering out of interest any suggestions for getting either a second hand box and/or a performance one for less than a new Lexus standard.
Thing is do not want a noisy one or pay to much dosh, chromes cool.
As for the rear bumper, Ill need to get that sorted when I have some spare dosh.
Any advice appreciated.

Thanks for the replys.
Ive joined up as a GOLD now, so can get in touch direct - just waiting for the confirmation etc.....
So how much is a reasonable price for second hand rear exhaust?
Also I live in Medway - Kent.
I am thinking going for a sports rear, but then will want a new manifold, air filter, new head and bingo up goes my credit card !!
Slippery slope.
Well impressed with the cars on this site, classy.
