Neuspeed exhaust is uneven. What to do?

So i've had the Neuspeed Cat-back exhaust for about a month now and they've always been uneven so i changed the left rubber hanger piece with the right and it helped somewhat. Could it be that one of the rubber pieces is giving more slack? Is it possible to order these pieces or any ideas on how to correct this?

Wow, the misalignment is really noticeable.

Is that how the muffler shop ended up installing it? Cause I would take it to a better muffler shop.

Hmmm, not to knock on your work, but I think the most stable solution to the misalignment is to pay a shop a couple of bucks to just touch up the alignment a bit.

1) pick up phone

2) call a muffler shop

3) ask.

I got my Apex'i full catback exhaust taken off of another CL and mounted onto my car for a total of $100. They needed to modify a flange as well as do some extra hanger shortening and welding (caues the exhaust was too low because it came off a CL with a bodykit).

shorten and modify a few hangers and re-align your exhaust, I predict it shoudl cost no more than $40-50 if the place is reasonable and isn't out there to rip you off.

Post up when you're done though. Glad you went w/ the neuspeeds.
