Hi all, anybody had any experience with German Swedish French E30 replacement exhausts? Quality any good?
Cheers

Bought two in recent years.
One at least five years ago(been on two E30's now
)and the other,perhaps four years back.
Do buy the 'fitting kit',and make sure you get the proper sleeve joints for the centre/rear section joint.

You can't beat a genuine BMW system. Expensive yes, but will prove to be value for money if you plan on keeping the car.
Most pattern stuff is awful. Timax exhausts are just rubbish. The one on my old E36 lasted just over 2 years. The BMW original lasted over 10.
I know GSF used to stock Walker exhausts. My E30 currently sports a Walker backbox as I didn't think I'd be keeping the car this long. Its OK and has somehow lasted 5 years but is looking pretty ripe for replacement now. Its original BMW backbox lasted 18.5 years.
