Exhaust tips

Anyone know anything about these, are they available in the UK?

I think they look good and straight swop for standard tips

I checked with BM a few days ago 'not available' (uk) was the answer.
BTW,I'm still working on some GTT ones. Its not as simple as it looks though as A) the stock pipes are too close together (more than 3mm added to diameter of each pipe and they'll touch)
B) It needs idealy to bolt on (not require welding), yet must not rattle or fall off!
C) It needs to look ok when you look up the end ;putting a drainpipe over a peashooter is difficult to hide.
-There are ways around these problems, and will keep you informed of progress.

They're excellent IMO. Just quote the part number at your local dealer and find 5 minutes of your time … and voila! For 05 models that pop and crackle superbly from the factory anyway, fitting these to rid yourself of the drinking straw tips is a no-brainer I reckon.

Here is a pic of my standard tips with aerokit and for £50 I think the difference between them is worth it
