Hi X5GHOST,
thanx,
The ring I turned up on a lathe at work, it was just a bar of alluminium stock that I bored the middle to suit the remaining OEM tip approx 2", then the outside diameter was the inside of the Ractive tips.I made it about 12mm thick and cut a slot it it so it was adjustable.
No the clamps did not come with the tips but they are just standard stainless exhaust and general use clamps.
I did have the bumper off bacause I did the trailer hitch at the same time, but it was much easier with the bumper off, I used a air saw to cut the OEM tips off, that was the only nervy part because once you have cut them off there is no going back.
Good luck.
