I think it might be mate. Just looker at the picture and theres no pipe comeing off the back of the box, this looks like a universal fit bake box.

the thing that worried me (apart from the price) was the difference in steel used between in the back box and tail pipe.

looks like a stainless steel tail pipe and an aluminium back box. stainless bit might be ok but the aluminium will rot through from the inside out. not really recommenced to weld disimillar metals which will be subject to a corrosive environment either you get what is called electro-galvanitic corrsion ocurring. stay well away from it!!!

Hangers look crap and the rear one is missing too! As above it will be a universal back box as it has the slip joint. You can get full stainless universal ones on ebay from the US for a lot less money - would prob end up costing the same after shipping but atleast it would be stainless?
