OE "Sport" exhaust tip question

For those of you with these I have a question. How much further do they extend beyond the lower valence than the stock beer can tips? Pictures make it look like a half inch or so. Thanks

Depends on the car. On my 03, they were about even. On my 06 they stick out 1/2 to 1 inch further (haven't measured).

well..whether they stick out or not. they still look very nice. a great replacement..even tho i dont have one. (they still make the rear end look a whole lot better)
i bought stock beer tips from someone on the forums recently and i'm gonna paint them flat black. hope it comes out good.

I had them on my 05 for a bit and it was approximately an inch. Doesn't look bad. Careful not to over tighten the set screw as the threads strip really easily.
