Regardless of the age of you XC90, I'm pretty sure the size of the pipe used for the standard exhaust is the same, 60mm OD, so these tips will just push on.

Hello chaps, just ordered a similar pair from Fleabay for £19.95. Followed Shadeyman's original link to this:
http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item...d=321594230228 It's for a Golf and its supposed to be Stainless... I'll report how (and if!) they fit once they arrive. Stu. |

What year is your XC90? Does it have the two exhaust pipes that curve downwards?
I was looking for something similar but nothing seemed to be suitable for the downward curving pipes. Also it looks like the pipes are sticking out further than the rear bumper. Isn't that illegal in the UK? |

This is what I am struggling to understand. How can straight covers fit over outlets that curve downwards, without modification? Shadey showed pics that confirm his vehicle did not have straight pipes.

Just checked my 57 plate D5 and my exhausts are 60mm across but 90mm top to bottom
Worth checking before buying, but thanks for the link - I'm slightly disappointed they won't fit, but thats £20 saved before Christmas which is a nice bottle of port instead! |

Evening chaps, sorry for the late reply, just home..
Hi Acer, my car is a 2007 SE Lux, so the exhaust has the straight, but slashed ends. Paulodipoggio, don't buy the Port yet!! I believe the exhaust ends are circular, at 60mm, but because the end is slashed, it gives the 90mm measurement. It's the same as slicing a cucumber straight, which gives you circles, or on an angle, which gives you lovely ovals of cucumberyness! I may need diagrams... Think Ducklakeview is correct, this may be how the tips fit the downward curved exhaust, but I not totally sure how the curve looks. Perhaps Shadey can help us all understand!! Don't think the protruding end (oo-err!) will fall foul of the law, I'm thinking of some Mini exhausts and the hot Renault hatch where they poke out like wheelbarrow handles. Had the email, mine have been dispatched.. |
