Anyone have any pictures of some homemade exhaust deflectors they have made, they look simple enough, there must be something you can use for this beisdes the boughten ones...
Squidd :cheers:
 
Sorry, but no :shrug: . I have always used store bought and usually regretted it :doh: . You need a good silicone based piece because rubber parts are going to harden with time and leak :spit: . I last used a deflector on my RS4 2 to get the exhaust outside of the body. It was a good idea but it looked stupid and if I got too close to pylons on the exhaust side it usually ripped the deflector off :wtf: . If you're contemplating using a deflector see if you can come up with a better solution :ponder: . You're gonna pay probably $6 for one (I think the last time I bought one they were $14 and you had to buy a package of two) :OMG: and I'll bet you won't like the finished product :angry:
