Hi..

I'd of thought, the ever helpful: Machine monkey, might of been able to help you with a set, perhaps?
Maybe a PM to him direct, might work?

Cheers :thumbsup:

Thanks for the suggestions Truth!

VRSteve, thanks for raising the topic: my exhaust tips need a bit of TLC too.

I am not sure they come separately - they’re riveted on I think. Once you’ve cleaned them up or gotten some MM ones give them a wipe inside after every drive with an old m/f cloth. They clean easily when they’re hot, and it makes it a lot easier to clean them properly with a wee bit of autosol when you do a wash.

Thanks for the replies
I have messaged Machine Monkey.

The thing is, mine have some scratches and one has a bit of a ding in it, so replacement is the better option I think.

I guess I could always take the tips of my original back boxes, but then it's have to swap them back when I put the car back to stock......
