Question New A3.. strange tailpipe question

Was behind a new Audi a3 earlier, I could see right up the std twin tailpipes and noticed something strange. Both looked to be blocked off (where they meet the back box) with only a circa 10mm hole (may have been less) in each. It certainly looked like the car was exhaling through two 10mm holes.

The pipes looked 'normal' at first, it was only because I was in a low car with decent lights that I got this view.

Strange I know, just intrigued Was I seeing things?

Probably a TDI with those gay bolt ons that make it look "more sporty", the real exits are underneath the fake polished pipes :S

Was behind some fool the other day in mundane-o tdci that had them on, and my golf tdi had them on by the previous fool who i bought it off.
