my advice, dont tighten them up until u decide - i did a few dozen times and it messed up the cheap screws.. so on one of mine i am tight on only 2 of the 3 -- just something to remember as u sit there and stare at it for hrs/days....

I agree. Mine are out 1 inch from the plastic bumper above

Yea I left mine in the stock position which leaves the bottom just sticking out. I sat and stared at them way too long before deciding to do that.

I still may go back and flush the top edge instead.

Anybody find a DC Sports website that's up to date? One I checked had their 2010 catalog online. Amazon also sells them.

Amazon has the 1010, 1012 and 1013 all listed as: "Tip fits 2-7/8 inch inlet x 3-7/8 inch outlet and 9 inch long". All are also listed as Stainless Steel, Slant Cut. Not sure that 3 different stock numbers would have the same dimensions. Gotta believe somethings not right with those 3 numbers.

Here is the pep boys website with a listing of tips. If you select just the DC sports tips on the left hand side, it will list out all the models with part numbers, specs, which could help you in your choice and search. Hope this helps.
