I know the pre-facelift JCW cat-backs are NLA. I also know the facelift exhausts only changed the direction of the exhaust hangers. I would think it would be easy enough to bend the hangers 180 degrees so it could be mounted on a pre-facelift.

I'm sure at least a few of you have fitted a facelift JCW exhaust on a pre-facelift. Is it as simple as I think it is or can it not be easily bent?

 

When I put a aftermarked exhaust on my R53 had to "modify" the hangers a little. An oxy/act torch will heat them so you can bend them like butter.

 

Cool, I thought that might be the case. I'll probably go for the JCW when I do my exhaust then.
