JCW exhaust trim

Just noticed on ebay there are some JCW exhaust trims for sale- surely the real works doesn't have trims attached to the exhaust tips?

Yes the Works exhaust tips just slide on the Works exhaust, but I think the exhaust on the Works system is larger than the standard S exhaust, therefore not just a straight swop as a few people on here have found.

Actually the Works Exhaust is a smaller diameter than the Stock exhuast and thats why they won't fit.

Now I am wondering... would one of these fit the standard one or coop exhaust, instead of that sorry looking coke can trim? If they do I wouldn't mind taking one (or both) off your hand emu... at the right price? PM me if interested.

Thats why mine are still in the drawer as the way the pipes exit on the S is not the same as on the works version and therefore would need modification from each rear box to exit the car correctly and not sure if its worth the hassle or expense.
