BFO lettering is laser etched, but when mine was fitted the tailpipe sat really close to the underside of the bumper (as my car's low already any exhaust would catch) so you can't really see the letters
Should be able to adjust the pipe between the de-cat and main section on mine to bring the tailpipe out a bit further, but I'm happy with it for the time being.
Sounds similar to Scorpion, Magnex, Mongoose, etc.
Not as loud as something like a Piper or Peco and no way as quiet as Sebring, Jetex (mild steel) or Remus.
Daimo - I didn't know Magnex didn't do the 6x4 for a Corsa B!!!
There's already a few out there on the Corsa C, surely someone else is on here with one??
Only the full system is available at the moment, due to the large bore on the tailpipes/rest of the system (2.25" bore), but at £299.95 rrp you can't complain!
The Astra 4 rear silencer has a bracket with the hangers on, without looking I'm thinking the Corsa C is the same design - Corsa B has the hangers on the rear box itself.
Anyone wanting to buy the BFO Exhaust would be wise to check out the PVD Advent calendar tomorrow (hint )
Any more questions??

Plenty im sure, on my site.
AS far as i was aware, Magnex stopped producing the 6x4 in favour of the 5x3?

BFO Exhaust:
Magnex 6x4 (RIP):
I suppose the two do look very similar, I don't know how many versions of a 6x4 pipe you could do at the end of the day...
The inner part of the tailpipe looks slightly different on the two, but without really getting anal and measuring them up... who knows!

How the hell are you going to hang it? Here is pic of my Sebring Backbox for the Corsa C, it has 2 hangers on the front and 1 at the rear.

as it says above, it may have a band to strap around it with the hangers attached!

Probably worth noting that BFO Exhausts are only £249.95 as part of the PVD Advent Calendar promotion
