Sportex would be a direct fit. Cherrybombs need modifying and welding.

Cherry bomb and sportex are both straight through box's so it's only really the tone is different, personally I prefer the sportex
Have a look on YouTube and through the project threads and decide which you like the sound of

Re: 1.4 8v first project
decided to give the boot pull a spray while I am sorting out the tail gate but I think it looks a little odd in gloss black I may have to sand it back down and do it in matt black

Nahh mate do the bumper trims in gloss black and it will all suit 180quid for a 4 branch and decat is cheap imo. 4 branches arent that easy got.
