from the back bumper to the muffler yea, easiet would be to go measure instead of makin us do ur dirty work , the diameter of the stock pipe is 2 inches so if u buy replacement tips, get the one that says fits up to 2" , thats what i got for the 3A tips

My stock tips were 2.5" outlet. I got 3.5" outlet, 2.5" inlet, 8" length tips and it completes the look of the rear. The stock tips are recessed under the bumper and look way too small for a car as large and as powerful as the TL.

what if you get a bigger one instead of a 2" like 2.5" would that fit or no?

If you are getting a bolt on tip like at autozone or something just the clamp that bolts on to your stock pipe has to be 2" the new tip can be as big as u can find, my 3A oval tips are like 2.75 or 3" but the clamp on the inside is 2" to fit the TL , also i suggest u paint the clamps high heat black paint so that it makes it harder to tell they are tips and looks more like a real exhaust

I got 9" tips, and it fits for 2" .75. But it doesn't have clamps It's a bolt on and the screws aren't long enough to hold the tip onto the stock exhaust. I got longer screws so it would fit, and I found out that my right exhaust stick out more than my left one Not sure what I can do about this. Back to the tips, when I tighten the screws, the tip tends to tilt UP and to the LEFT. It looks weird, I don't know what to do.
