Chrome exhaust trims

I know there are quite a few threads on here regarding what are the best chrome exhaust trims for the Exeo but I thought I would start this one as I have found some that fit perfectly.

Having read most of the threads on here and then searching for weeks to find the perfect fit, I stumbled across these..........Skoda FDC 609002. They are for an Octavia II with a diameter of 55mm, which is identical to that of the Exeo and are are 68mm at the front. They are fixed in place by sturdy clamps. They have rolled in edges and have a more acute slant cut than the standard pipes but this suits the car better imo.

They cost £52 from a Skoda dealer. Fairly expensive but worth every penny although not as expensive as VW or Audi but then I haven't found any that fit and also not as expensive as the £80+ for the Seat oval pipe that also requires the existing tailpipes to be cut!

Hope this helps those that are looking to improve their rear!

Cheers, Jezza.

I have a 2012 143 Sport Tech.

Definitely no cutting required as I fitted these myself. Mine is also still under warranty and is also a company car, so I cannot make any alterations like cutting exhaust pipes!

I will upload some photos but they definitely improve the look of the rear.

Hope this helps.

Going to try and get some photos up today.

The instructions do say to cut the original pipes back so that you can't see them once the trims have been fitted. I haven't and you can see the them on the inside of the trims but I can live with it because it has improved the look of the rear and you can only see the original pipes if you are up really close.

have posted some pics but this site will not let me post the URL so go to photobucket.com/Exeo

I also bought some from eBay previously and they were also poor quality and too big which is why I spent some time researching and ended up with these Skoda ones.

Did you see the photos of my car with them fitted at photobucket.com/Exeo?

Just make sure that you measure the diameter of your existing pipes. The 143 has 55mm pipes but I would expect the 170 to have a bigger diameter.

These Skoda trims I have fitted are for 55mm diameter.

I ordered mine through Walkers of Kings Lynn and they only took a day to get to the dealership. They would have posted but I collected as I happened to be "nearby" on business.

I also found them at milotec.de/index.php?cat=c312_Auspuff.html - code No. 69 902 for 32.50 Euros for a single and therefore 65 Euros plus postage for the twin pipe set up. Also at superskoda.com/octavia-ii/exhaust/skoda-octavia-ii-2-0-tdi-exhaust-tip-stainless-steel-sport-edition-from-skoda-auto-a-s for 59.99 Euros plus postage.

Hope you get them soon and would like to know what you think once fitted. Some pics would be good too.
