Customer wants Two of these white 450mm wide towel rads changed for chrome 600mm wide towel rads.
I can’t do anything about the 10mm plastic pipes coming out of the wall (without making a mess) so need to make it look as tidy as possible on show.

Any suggestions?

What’s the other side of the wall?
Can you get in the back?

Keep LHS (as we look) as it is and move RHS over by 150 from the other side of wall- cover old hole with grout...
 
He doesn’t want any walls opened so it’s going to be chrome on show to take up the gap.

As above and adapt right hand side with these mate ??
I think it’s going to be this but with a press or compression chrome elbow and chrome pipe.

It won’t be pretty but it’s what he wants
 
Multi tool through the grout joints and plaster board gets you in behind. Plywood and sticks like **** or sticks all gets it put back together and a little bit of white grout finishes it off.
