Anyone that bought a TSX with the stock bodykit, does your's come with the EXTENDED EXHAUST TIPS? I've been browsing the American forums and the TSX with the stock Acura bodykit comes with the Extended Exhaust Tips. I know that my car's exhaust tips are not that extended ones because they sit behind the rear valance where as the extended tips slightly comes past the rear valance.

Anybody here have the extended tips or does Canada just not include them?

Cheers,
DXorcist.

I just checked my car, and sure enough I do have the extended tips.

Looking at other pics, there's the opening, and a "hood" that extends out from the opening. The hood is flush with the opening at the bottom.

On my car, the "hood" extends further from the opening all the way around.

To Dxorcist:
Is it possible to show us how your muffler looks like?

Hi dxorcist,

Yes, I am located in Canada. I figured that was a given since this is the Canadian regional group. ;)

I got my car from Camco Acura in Ottawa. Have you asked your dealer about the extended tips?

Reply with a pic of your tip for comparison if you can.

Nice colour choice! I would have gotten PWP if my other car wasn't white as well.

Looks like you have enough info to get the dealer to give you the extended tips. I think they're just held on by screws.

thanks dxorcist. I think I don't have the extend tip either, and my stock muffler tip is like rusting already.
