Default Chrome exhaust tips

Just got a new A5 and think she's missing chrome exhaust tips. I've found some OEM that will fit the 2012 model for around $100 on ebay. So, here are my questions:

Will these fit the 2013?

How much should I expect to pay for an install on this? It's probably just a quick weld, I'm guessing.

If I have them installed by anyone else than the dealer does that effect my warranty at all?

Depending on the answer to the last question, are there other tips that are recommended besides OEM? I really like the "stock" look of the angled OEM tips.

Thanks in advance.

I have a 2012 A5 Quattro and that makes a difference in the size of the tips. The Quattro has bigger diameter pipes. I got a set also on EBay a while ago and had to exchange them with the dealer. They just slide on over the pipes. No welding ,just push them on . They have a metal spring tab that will lock them so be sure you have them lined up when you push them on as they are a bear to twist.
Once done they make a huge difference .Audi should have them put them on from the factory. For what the car costs they got cheap by not including them.

I wish I knew this before getting the tips installed at the dealer.

In any case, they look great and I agree that they should come standard (like, um, Bluetooth!).

Cheers.
