| Tyrefitter Member Since: 19 Jul 2015 Location: Bridlington East Yorkshire Posts: 3677      | 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.

| Lindab Member Since: 20 Nov 2017 Location: Dundee Posts: 934    | I would leave the exhaust tips as they are. Only my opinion | ||

| Tyrefitter Member Since: 19 Jul 2015 Location: Bridlington East Yorkshire Posts: 3677      | 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.
