BMS Tips Fitted
Thanks to gsr for sending these up managed to find some time and fit them over the weekend. As most people are aware it's a straightforward job to do, just get a piece of wood and hold it behind the existing trim and gently use a hammer to knock it forward. One thing though it's a tight fit between the back box and the trim so you need a thinnish piece of wood with a decent bit of strength (don't use mdf), unfortunately the best I could find was a cheeseboard which did the trick perfectly but it met it's maker on the last pipe and split in half! (oh well, no more perfectly sliced cheese for me).
I think the trims look great, they are the black chrome version so goes well with my carbon diffuser, the original stock ones were looking a bit lost but these fill out the available space nicely. Couple of pics, last one added becasue it was sunny:

Yes on closer inspection I can see there is a slight blue tint, comes out more in the sun but as amarxyz pointed out the blue must come out more from the exhaust heat over time
