Interesting - will the existing exhaust tips just fit behind the plastic finishers moulded into the new bumper ?

Yes the exhaust tips on mine just need the chrome tail pipes cutting off then they sit inside the ones on the new bumper,i checked yesterday as a friend has the new shape so I looked under his. Andy.

I think rear rear exhaust tips are stainless not plastic.

Decision time what colour to paint it,I think I’ll go for the black with white tow eye cover.

Personally I prefer the black. If I was doing this (on a white RRS) I think I would try the black for a few weeks and decided then if I wanted to change teh colour to white.

But im having the exhaust tips satin black so I thought the white would just split it a bit. Andy.

After looking at it a few times I think you chaps could be right,,with it being black it makes the rear look a bit beefier,so black it is,even my painter agrees with you. Andy.

I would leave the exhaust tips as they are. Only my opinion |

I could do Lindab as they are only held on with 4x serf tapers & if I wanted I could paint them later,i just need a rear toweye cover for the towbar to come through instead of taking the cover off when needed.
