I’ve just had a Milltek exhaust installed but I’m not that keen on the tips, they are a bit too big on an SE that I’m trying to keep subtle.
Has anyone got a recommendations for stealthier tip that they have fitted?
They look a bit larger because they are protruding a bit more than OEM and also hanging down a bit.
Well, they are larger in diameter to start with and the OEM diffuser cutouts are not that round so anything bigger than the OEMs will look bigger.
I had these on, sort of flush with the diffuser face and not too low.
I had the issue of both tips dropping down too much as you can see in the first picture… I changed the rubber exhaust hanger and that pulled the whole thing much closer to the rear valance.
I did email Milltek about changing the tips as I wanted to fit there burnt Cherokee tips, if I’m honest they weren’t very helpful, just saying only the 90 and 100mm jet tips fitted my exhaust. I’m sure you could change the tips with little effort but I didn’t bother in the end.

Had a quick test fit tonight with the second set of exhaust tips from eBay, the first set had to go back after a mistake with the tape measure
I've replaced both rubber hangers but it does seem to be hanging lower on the left, I'll probably have time to adjust it at the weekend.
Much happier with the result now!

I find mine very useful - I fitted a cheap Chinese one when I first got the car - packed up within a year and never operated correctly. Then I fitted OEM Valeo, I think, and silicone sealed the washer pipe and waxoyled the hatch whilst the trim was off. Been good now for over 3 years. Why is it I still see mostly A3s, with the wiper mid pointing up always, ha ha.
Very nice exhausts, printmonkey. I am so jealous of proper dual exhausts. I hate the modern hidden square slot ones. It's why I loved my old Jags too - real class rear end ha ha.
