Exhaust Tips on a 2010 facelift?

Hi guys, newbie here (go easy!)

I'm purchasing a 2010 Sport at the end of April after my current car is due its first MOT and I've already started buyi the parts for an autobiography upgrade.

So I have the gen alloys and tailgate strip but one concern I have is which exhaust tips do I purchase?

I know that the early Sport diesels had pointing down exhausts - is this the case for the 2010 facelifted models also?

After looking on eBay at some same spec cars it does appear so I just wanted to ask everybody on here if that is the case.... And if so would this part fit?

My 2010HSE has the exhaust tips facing straight out. I think the downward facing tips were on the 2009 or early 2010 model (MY2010). From mid 2010 the exhaust tips faced straight out.
Those tips you are looking at are for the early downward facing exhaust & you have to cut the original exhaust to fit them. I'm in the shed, I'll be back in the real world in a minute.

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

IIRC the early facelift cars had straight out exhausts on all models and then the dreaded DPF's had to be fitted and after that all models except S/C's had downward pointing tips. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced

Other way around Tim.

Non-DPF cars have downward tips and DPF fitted cars have straight tips. 2014 L405 SDV8 RR Autobiography Cool
