It looks better with the 04 tips on the exhaust.

I was thinkig about doing this but read somewhere that they stick out quite far and the exhaust needs cutting to make it look right, did you do that?

Also how easy is it to take off the old ones and fit the new ones?

Looks bonza though

I got a local garage to do them - you need to take off about 3cm each exhaust, to get them off you literally undo a bolt (10 second job)

I think I cut off just over 3cm and they now sit nice and flush

They're ok, I just don't think they look as good as the moulding of the bumper is more oval than round...

Do it, they cost hardly anything from Hardtopguy
