Hey guys, I've got a 2012 lx here. I basically cut off the "turn down" portion of the exhaust pipe and lowered the muffler a little bit. Judging from the pictures, do you guys think that one of the exhaust tips I've linked below will fit? There is about a 6 inch gap from the end of the pipe to the bumper, and very little height clearance between them. Any advice is appreciated!

You cut it before you measured it so you might as well buy something and hope it fits. Can't leave it like that, right? Either one of them would look good. I like the 2nd one. How about a dual tip?
 
I think the first one will give you the best chance of fitting. They are both bolt on but measure the OD of the original pipe and make sure it will fit inside the new one and that the new one clamps down tight enough to that size. Any bolt on type should work for you. Also measure to see how long it need to be to end up near the edge of the bumper so the exhaust isn't getting trapped under there and isn't going to be directed underneath the bumper where it could melt your paint.

Already sorted to bolt on options for you.

Yeah it was a spontaneous descision on a boring day, so I didn't really think about measurements and such at that time, haha.

Yeah I've got the OD and length all figured out. Basically I'm having a hard time figuring out if a tip be low enough to clear the bumper, that's my main issue. And thanks for the link.
