Could be tempted to sell the custom piece of the 4th gen breaker I had recently, custom downpipe with flexi and cat mated to a custom center section with 2 silencers, then a custom scorpion rear section.

Quality piece of kit that I'm sure was based on the custom system that @indigolemon had on his old lude before it went on my current lude but previous owner butchered.

Was planning on possibily fitting it to mine as a replacement for said butchered exhaust but I now have the fujitsubo mani/downpipe to go on.

Mine looks standard ish on the tips (twin) and can sit on the motor way with very little noise inside, once you open it up the sound is nice and it's a 3" system. JP exhaust did mine.

Is it the whole thing you'd sell or just the front section?

This ^^^^

The exhaust on my UKDM is a powerflow. Fits perfectly, sounds great and works really well. Baffles in the rear box are now getting a bit worn out (not rattling, but up really close it can sound a bit 'whistley' which I think will because they are worn), but it's 10 years old, so what can you expect!

Exactly that ^^^^
They have put some work into weeding out crap dealers in recent years I believe (i was chatting to people at the central licensing place a year or so ago, about potentially getting a replacement back box.
