Today I went to a Honda dealer to get the exhaust plug. I still don't have a picture of it since they didn't have one in stock so I ordered one. The price was 39 pounds (including 17.5% tax), so that works out to be about AU$80. Here are some pictures on the car, makes the rear bumper much cleaner for single exit exhaust users.

Thats very neat and tidies up the rear for those of you who have gone to single exhaust.
Typically Honda pricey for what it is but Great stuff!

Haha, yeah and also checking out a lot of nice cars here. I'm not sure about the retaining mechanism, but I'll know about it on friday. I'll post up some pictures.

very nice. Any chance you could get me one? I need it in carbon grey for the 03-05 model with OEM rear lip.

Definitely makes the rear end look neater:thumbsup:

Yeah sure chris, it comes pre painted. For our cars carbon grey is actually graphite pearl (NH658P). But this might get a bit expensive with shipping cost. I'm not sure how much for shipping, but it might be about $10-20.

so you can actually buy the plug for the OEM kit seperately, cool. I'll send you a PM to sort something out.

I'll try, that's not my car BTW so I'll see if I can take pictures again when I visit the dealer again. It looks much better without having the hole

Allright, finally it has arrived! Here are the pictures of the exhaust cover. The quality and finish is superb, as expected from Honda. To mount it on, you will need 2 black plastic clips. The plastic clips are identical to those securing wheel arches.

standard bumper from 03-05. But there is a cover that goes with the OEM kit as well

ok cool, can you find out how much they are for us? Myself and a few others would be interested in ordering one from the dealer.

Maybe we should move to PM's or else I would get infringed lol. It would be significantly cheaper for each of you since S can be combined

Well, I can lift my 5zigen catback easily with one hand. The OEM one however, needs two hands. I'm guessing it is lighter by 10-15kg
