Looks like the same shape to me, but you wont for sure until you offer it up to the down pipe.
We ALL make mistakes !!!

As above, the blitz ones are better as the bolt holes are oval shaped so they are more likely to fit different exhausts.

thanks for your replies , just thought, maybe i could measure the exhaust as that's off the car

I've bought this from same buyer.
Fitted my apexi downpipe and departure exhaust perfectly fine.
However, I've been through 2 of these gaskets now in a matter of 1-1.5years.
Let me know if you find another supplier/version that is
more likely to last!

I've had these on my exhaust since I decatted in 2007. No problems so far and it's been on and off a few times, but they are a little more expensive.

I am pretty sure there must be a cheaper generic gasket supplier though

That fits the end of the downpipe yeah. I've used other shapes and sizes elsewhere in my exhaust as well.
