| Quadra Exhaust System | |||
| Downpipes | Renault | 6025005971 | N.B. The Quadra needs a different exhaust system to the normal FWD Espace because the carbon fibre prop shaft and its heat shield are where the 2WD Espace has the transverse front silencer! All these exhaust pieces are now unavailable and you'll need a custom (stainless) system made. |
