it will go on but ours hit the bumper
and didnt line up properly. If you know someone who can weld the tail pipe CAN be cut off and re-welded at the right angle thats what we did.

Prima Racing are Cituning and those tailboxes were made by Scorpion but I suspect somebody else makes them up now.

There a doodle to fit, but they do catch the bumper. fortunatly mine has already been cut out for a previous one so it s nice and snug!
