Driving home, saw a 2013 4G with oval exhaust tips...is this stock??

picture is blurry, he was about to take off on a left turn before i caught him with the camera..

wondering if this is a stock feature for the 2013?? its more of a oval shape.. looks completely stock to me.. but the cut out of the bumper is telling me this is aftermarket.

those tips look just like the 2007-2009 MDX ones, which are oval and angled down

That is not a 2013, it wouldn't have the ACURA badge on there if it was a 2013.

Those look exactly like s2000 (AP2) exhaust tips.

^^ if you notice, no new acura carries the ACURA badge as of 2013 - check out the RLX, the MDX concept, NSX prototype etc.

is this a US thing? because i just looked at the acura canada website and i still see that acura batch on the RLX, MDX concept, and NSX.
