Flaming hell - I thought you were referring to where the pipes come out of the wall. Din't realise you were doing it IronNaz stylee.
Christ, if you ever get that water tight is till look a mess.
Those pipes should be buried in the wall.
I agree they should be buried in the wall but its now not possible without ripping the whole lot off and causing a whole lot of mess
where the pipes are now can be moved but im at a loss to think of a better way
i know externally piping it isnt ideal but it is what it is
so im hoping someon will be able to provide a better way of doing it

Whats behind that box section of wall ?
Thats some gap to fill.
Even with what you suggest i can't see you getting a good job done and water tight.
Nothing worse than ledges at the same end as the shower water always sits there.

The only thing I can think of is a baton infill, layered with tonnes of silicone, then a tiled ledge with cut-outs for the taps. It will look rubbish, and unless the bath is rock solid, it WILL leak eventually.
No chance of getting the same ? Depending on age.
Or no chance of removing a few once tiles off ?

I can only suggest as dan has said but it's not a long term solution.
I be inclined to savage what you can and battern/board it out to the bath.
Pipes run behind boarding retile.
Or at worst board out up to the crome part with ledge just below chrome tile.
Move mixer down onto the blue tile after boarding.
Kill two birds with one stone.
