Those black-chrome tips look great - love 'em! They do seem to stick out a bit too far still though. Perhaps someone here can measure how far the 4.6 or 4.8 stock tips stick out and you could use that measurement. I personally think the stock tips are just right. Just a suggestion...

so xFive, if you had to remove the bumper, how did you get them aligned with the bumper cut-outs?
