Greddy exhause misfit?

Does the topes look right to you guys?

The driver side muffler is closer to the bumper than the passenger side and the hanger did not match up the holes in order for the bolts to bolt in..

Is it possible that it wasnt installed correctly?
Any thoughts are appreciated.

any more pics can be taken if requested. just let me know..

Looks about right to me. Did you buy them new or used?

Hmm. Hopefully someone with a greddy exhaust can chime in here. Maybe they all had some minor issues while installing

Wash your car bro

Mine sits the same way. It is noticeable when looking eye level at the exhausts from behind. Not too much you can do...

I know its a little off topic but i had the same issue installing my Tanabes. The driver side is slightly closer to the bumper and the lower hanger on the driver side did not like up very well.

Its one of those things that really no one but you will notice but now that you point it out, I would not be happy with that.

mine didnt line up. I installed mine correctly but my passenger side tip was actuly hitting the bumper. looked like the flange was welded on a little sideways. I heated the exhaust pipe and bent it to fit correctly. you need to take out the silencers on yours.
