with enough £££ anythings possible

should be easier on the gls as the side skirts are not too deep

Side exhaust is always possible, but it will go under the chassis, since factory didn't left any space for side exhaust exit, I think you wanna put on side skirt to make it looks good. Do not lower the car, but to stiffen it up, so exhaust don't scratch the road during hard cornering.

You will really struggle for space under there for any form of silencer.

I was thinking of having twin side exits (one each side) with no silencers for Japshow........just for a laugh and some serious noise! Will have to see if I have enough time!

i was thinking of leaving the silencer etc where they are and just changing the tail pipe so it bends roundy into a side exit.

what you think.

ahh see what you are saying - like old skool golfs?

does the GLS have any cuts outs on the bumper for the exhaust or is it flat - if its flat it should not look out of place - try and find some examples and post pics of what you are looking for - just to give us a better idea

:D

will do matey.

the gls does have the cuts at the back but this is easily solveable with a bit of fibreglass and some spraying.
