Hello.
I was wondering if it is easy to put on a exhaust enhancer plate?
I found one I like I just am not going to buy it if it is difficult to put on.
I am a female trying to add to my car.

Which one?? There are a few. If its Dennis Josts then its not too difficult, maybe a boyfriend could help you out also. Is this the one

It is the one that sits between the exhaust with just the C-6 logo on it.

Like the one on your second picture not the skull just the logo.

I found it on EBay.

Those are pretty simple to install. I believe that most attach to the exhaust hangers. Just loosen the bolts enough to slide in the plate attachment and re tighten.

most come with a slotted attachment on them, one slot goes to the side, the other is vertical
You loosen the hanger bolts enough to slide it in sideways the up on the other side, then tighten the hanger bolts. Very simple process.

Ok. First off. What type exhaust. ??

Need to make sure you get the one for the exhaust you have.

It is a fairly simple install but there is not a lot of room to work. Takes a little patience

Do you have the stock exhaust? I ordered one off of Ebay to find it would not fit with the wider Corsa tailpipes on my car.

Where did you buy this one and how much?

If this is the one you're talking about, it is very simple to install. Had it on mine for a few years; I now have a filler plate....

I have SLP Big mouth exhaust.

I want just the small one that goes back under the car.

Just received my exhaust plate from Dennis Josts. Quality product and easy install. Highly recommend.

I think it is great you wish to begin some mechanics.
Very easy install.
This is from memory.
Again really easy.

Typically these plates are slotted and slide under the bolts.
1) Lift car...only a foot needed, there is plenty of room, so you can slide under the car on your back. Don't forget to use a safety/ jack stand...that is good practice to follow.
2) Look for the two retainer bolts between the mufflers on the bumper reinforcement.
3) Regular socket, extension, ratchet or a open/ box end wrench. I believe it is 1/2 size.
4) Loosen the bolts, or remove the bolts, slide into the plate, add some blue Loctite to the bolt threads (optional), tighten the bolts to 18 foot pounds.
5) Lower the car, smile and take a picture of you new plate.

If you're on the slim side you probably won't need to raise the car, I can get at it without lifting just by parking the car with the rear wheels at the end of my garage floor by the door and the rear of the car overhanging the sloping driveway. Just make sure the car is in gear (or Park) and set the hand brake. Never hurts to chock a wheel if you're under the car also.
