Very true. Whilst it'd be easier for me to get the above mentioned V2 pipes over here, I've never heard a bad word about the AR Design DPs, so I'm very tempted with those, as fitment is supposed to be perfect.

Only thing with the AR ones is that I'd be so tempted to get them coated, even though I'm pretty sure it'd provide me with very little benefit on the road.
