Exhaust Outlets not even

Okay,

I know I'm going to make most of you even more neurotic about your TL's, but today I was standing outside one of my customer's office and I was looking at the rear end of my TL. That is when I noticed that the gap between the body and the trapezoidal exhaust outlets was different on the right from the left. I'm sure these could probably be bent to match up. Does anyone know if that's easy to do or should I leave it to the dealer?????

On that note...

My car is in the shop for a few fixes, including replacing the entire rear exhaust system, just because the chrome tips had rust on them.

Mike Smeezy, FYI

Man, how do you guys get all these little things replaced? I mean, how do you approach the dealer about replacing the whole exhaust system, just because of a few rust spots? I assume they offered to replace it?

You're Right!

I mentioned it, they replaced it. It seems that Acura whats you to have a nice-new trouble free car.

Just think, the Mazda 6 owners have rusty door sills and Mazda says it is normal, and it is a stain due to lubricant, not rust. Too bad for them.

After you have them replaced, or for anyone who cleans the tips, use Metal wax.Works really great!
