Thats odd, that the tip sticks out and the screws are too short. My tip sits pretty flush with the bumper, I didn't have any problems with the screws being to short. Do you want me to take some pics close up?

hey guys. Just got back from a scuba trip in Tobermory.
I realise now that my tip is very similar, but not exactly the same as yours Tego. Yours is shorter, which would be the reason mine sticks out too much. I'm going to take a trip to CT now and see if I can find the one you've got; I'm sure it will look much better.

I had some caliper spray paint left over from when I did those, so I just used it. It worked fine and can handle the hight heat. You can get it at CT, Partsource, and maybe Wal-Mart (I know they have the engine paint, not sure about caliper stuff. But it's all the same anyway).
