Are exhaust nipple tassles an LR option? :lol:

I got out the RR today after a long drive and had these hanging out the tail pipes!
Any one know what they are and why?

I suspect its the sound deadening from the backbox being blown through but do I need to do anything about it?

Cheers

Had a similar thing happen many years ago on an old Rover. Turned out to be the sound deadening material from the silencer 2011 TDV8 Vogue SE

My friend had the same thing happen.
I pulled a bit out and it felt like wire wool.
The garage said it was silencer material, they just pushed it back inside.
