Quicksilver Exhaust

I just have a question for anyone out there that has installed a Quicksilver exhaust on a Cooper S. I just received mine today, and my boyfriend told me that there aren't any clamps in the box (it was shipped to his work). I assumed that these would be included, and I'm not sure if there is anywhere that I would be able to get them locally.

Thanks for your help =)

Contact the company you bought it from. It should have come with clamps. If all else fails, clamps are clamps, go to pep-boys and pick up a few.

If you do go to buy some clamps (I seem to recall 2) at a local auto store, the QS exhaust plumbing is 2.25". I'd recommend band clamps over the U-bolt variety as they form a tighter seal...

I got the QS exhaust from Randy Webb a couple years ago and mine didn't have clamps either. Randy just told me the size (2.25) and to just get some from the local shop, so no worries. But i'm surprised, after nearly 2 years they still forget the clamps? haha

I wanted a Quicksilver exhaust but ended up with the Borla system. No complaints about the Borla but I love the look of the QS.
