Met black Macan Turbo, externally standard apart from SD mirrors.

Spent an hour today on my back under the car unscrewing the brushed stainless square exhausts, taking them off and cleaning all the winter grime off each one and then polishing them.

Wish I had specc’d Black exhaust tips

The damn bright metal square ones are next to impossible to clean on car and I’m to old and screwed up to work under a car.

Had same issue on my previous S3, chrome dual twin tailpipes, a bugger to clean in between and bottom of the pipes. I have the black tailpipes and are a bit easier to clean.
Bought my S at 9 months old, car has pretty much all my must haves but miss having the 75lt fuel tank especially as only £93.

Why not ask your OPC the cost of upgrading and give us all a laugh ?

If you don’t clean them, don’t they go black on their own?

Aye, stick 2 noughts on the £93 and will be somewhere near!
