Perfect mate! Exactly what I was looking for!
From that I'd say that the hole needs to be extended to the left as we look at the back of the car, you agree?

is it possible to buy just the 180 exhaust trim on its own or is it a whole new bumper job?

Yeh you can buy just the trim on its own. I don't think its exactly cheap but there was a group buy on here a while ago for them

I thought the twin pipes were part of the back box, not a trim. Or is that just true of the janspeed?

get a 180 owner to measure the gap between the edge of the fog and the edge of the exhaust surround
then measure yours, if you want to be precise.
From the photos i reckon you want around an inch off each side of the normal surround
