Cool custom exhaust looks tite

custom exhaust
difficuty : 1 (1-5)
materials: putty or bondo, lead pencil cap, vhs tape, sandpaper

this is my way of making an exhaust but u dont hav to use my way but here is it. first you take apart a vhs tape and take the chrome peices that help the tape spin take those two chrome pieces. and then if you hav one of those dr. grip lead pencils take the cap or if u hav sumthing similar to the pecil cap. the cap must be bigger than the peice from the vhs tape or if wont look right. if you dont have 1 u might want to get one if you want to do the exhaust. ok. u need the one chrome piece from the vhs tape, lead pencil cap, putty, and something u want to fill in the hold. ok put a lot of putty or bondo into the cap of the pencil cap then stick the vhs peice in to the bigger piece. when its dry use sandpaper and smoothe it out. after get chrome paint to spary it. if you want the dual then u need two dr. grip lead pencils. and then let the paint dry and your dont glue it to the xmod and u hav a custom exhaust that looks like the N1 or the hks silent.
