It won't be flush, trust me. The 8" JDM tips were made for the old USDM 2013-2016 muffler which had longer tail pipes and 2017+ RHD models which I can't explain.
We in North America got screwed with the 2017+ USDM muffler that has shorter tail pipes, so installing the JDM tips will not result in the same look as the RHD cars.

I really don't know what's going on with the RHD 2017+ cars and how they're longer tips poke out from the bumper. All UKDM, AUDM, and JDM look good.
