carsonkev Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Can't you just get a good rear bumper that keeps the Dom enclosed so its out of harms way they only crack when the exhaust takes an impact I've been running a home made bumper out of carbon fibre and not had any problems Thing is with using hose there's the chance of pipes melting and splitting Having a few problems with my samba race pipe leaking and this was designed with silicone hose in place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul_TDi Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 I bought a dom clone which had been cut and 'sealed' with a silicon hose, quickly gave up on it and bought a bartalone 1 piece exhaust protected by an uber bumper. The silicon pipe was constantly leaking, slipping off, burning inside and splitting. Keep your pipe 1 piece and just protect it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
