Exhaust Tip on DH Driver Side Looks Misaligned

[mks]

Just noticed my driver side tips look a bit misaligned. Just past 1300 miles. I don't know if it was like this before my Switchfire X-pipe install or not.

Maybe my eyesight is worse than my glasses let on, but this looks off to me. Nothing looks damaged--but I don't have another DH to compare to at the moment.

Needs a little adjustment by rotating clockwise. Dealer can handle that, not really an issue.

that's not so bad, but definitely ever so slightly rotated. probably happened due to installing the switchfire since there's no more solid pipe and welds holding it aligned

Copy all. Just got an appt to have them adjusted. At least I know my glasses prescription is still good.

I wouldn't expect the dealer to automatically handle that. If you put a Borla switchfire in, then whomever (assuming not the dealer) should address that from the point of a poor install. Easy fix.

Yup, my appt is with the shop who did the pipe, not the dealer (although my dealer has been pretty cool about this kind of thing in the past).

My passenger side is off but I haven't had any great experiences with dealers lately so I'll probably just leave it.

Was tempted to do the same. It's not effecting anything save my OCD. But, the shop who installed my Borla pipe is not charging me for the work, so why not.

I had the same issue, had to loosen up the clamps and realign it. Resonator delete leaves the exhaust with a new rotating dimension that needs to get right.

My res delete could have been the cause. I probably should have noted the orientation before my res delete, but never had this happen on my last DH or any of my GTs. But the shop that is doing the work is taking care of it. If my back wasn't so bad, I guess I could have tried to manage it myself.

My MBRP sits right against my My bumper, no gaps at all

Yikes! I'll take a second set of photos after the adjustment. Unless the design is radically different, don't see why the MBRP couldn't be adjusted as well.

I've owned 5 s650s now and every one of them had one side or the other tilted down.

Maybe I've just had 8 one-offs. This is merely a first...even with previous res deletes. But this looks easily resolved.

They are welded on. Not at easy fix for the dealer.

The tips are poorly lined up and welded from the factory.
