I've just had a look at it and shouldn't the rear pipes come out straight :-/ and is the gap between the hangers correct as seem a lot shorter than my genuine VX unit?

Thats the same as mine with the squared pipes. I think the ebay one is for a facelift maybe..

makes sense by the bends in the pipes, as estate pipe is right at the corner of the bumper.

being the oval pipes it was made for the facelift but it will fit both as thats the only design difference. personally I prefer the squarer pipes.
