Anyone know how the chrome tailpipes come off? Iv looked underneath and there are holes but I thought there would be grub screws holding them on but I can't see any. Do they twist off?

I'm looking at taking them off to clean them
 
Just yank em off. They just push on.

Yeh I figured it out in the end. Couldn't pull them off so had to give them a tap from behind.

Gave them a polish with my dremel and they are looking brand new now
 
Didn't take any before pics but they were a bit crusted up with black stuff.

Not a bad result

That's what I was looking at doing but thought it's worth a try taking them off and getting all the caked on stuff off and polishing them up. Think it's worked quite well.

Enquired about newe ones and £97, can't get the ones for 2007 obsolete now, but new ones available. Not sure they fit.
