JCW exhaust on a FWD Clubman S?

Hey yall. Hopefully a quick question. I want to upgrade to the standard JCW on my Clubman S fwd. I know (I think i know) that the fwd exhaust will not work on the All4 without modification. Will the All4 exhaust fit the FWD without mod? And I've decided against the the JCW Prokit exhaust for sound levels and various reasons so that is off the table now.

I'd be willing to gamble that if it fits an All4, it will fit an FWD. Since the All4 has the rear driveshaft and differential, that means less space than the FWD version. So if it fits the All4, then it should fit the FWD model.

With what I said above, the NM Engineering exhaust says "Front wheel drive models require minor heat shield tweaking" for their exhaust to fit. JCW exhaust may need the same.

Hey, did you end up doing this? I'm also not wanting to spend thousands on a new exhaust for my FWD and want to fit the standard JCW exhaust.

Cooperjunkie, I'm about to fit the JCW Pro to my 2017 if you're interested in my JCW stock exhaust.

Still considering this. Has anyone else pulled the trigger. I can get the muffler section for around $650 from the dealer here. Would I need to change the mid pipe as well or are they the same? Also, does anyone have any vids of the S sound compared to JCW sound? As far as I can tell there are nearly no JCW clubmans around central KY so I've never really heard one in person.
