Corroded exhaust tips

Hi all,

I have the black exhaust tips that come with the sports exhaust on the RS4. They are corroding, signs of oxidisation. I tried cleaning but it seams like the black has come off, what do people do to get it back to looking new? Thanks in advance.

I think so, am in SE9 if you want to try mine. Suddenly the car has some steering feel.
Thanks for the offer, a bit far for me but i may just give it a try for the price. :thumbs:

Lovely car... i’m of course biased!

Interesting seeing the colour combo with rotors... something i’ve been mulling over 🤔
Yeah for me, i do like the 20 V spokes but the 20" rotors look the best. Just do it! ;)
Should imagine the cleaning is easier on the rotors too.

Just in case anyone else may be renewing anytime soon. Thats good, i just took mine out with Admiral...

I would get the canyon bar though - 150 and really improves the steering using factory mounts and hardly visible.
Do they really make that much difference?

Re: Should i buy a B8? EDIT: NOW BOUGHT!

Lovely, I doubt very much that you will have any regrets. Mine came without folding mirrors - which pee'd me off. There are a number of places that will retrofit, depending on where you are based. I had mine done by Ash near Uxbridge. You'll be waving goodbye to £750 mind. You will also get the til...

Congrats, it's a lovely colour Panther Black and very nearly tempted me back into a black car, despite saying never again. Fontain are certainly selling a few B8 RS4's.
I actually bought this from Fontain.

That looks loveley that does. Any plans for it?
Not really, keep it as standard as possible i think.
Just small things like a rubber boot liner, might retro fit electric folding mirrors as this doesn't have it
probably not much else to be honest.
