I didn't think my Photo from my PHS packet showed the exhaust, and wasn't going to look, but I checked, and sure enough, it shows the exhaust, and it shows the car with the splitters!
They come out just a few inches past the rear wheel and only about 2 inches max below the sheet metal and the angle of the bottom of the tips of the splitters follow the angle of the bottom of the sheet metal... not parallel to the ground.
I haven't gotten tailpipes on mine either... but thanks to your question Vikki... I'll now be going with the splitters, much like Nash...
