Your tips are sticking out way too far bro. Just loosen the clamps and push it back until the tips are flush with the bumper.

Trust me you can move them back. I have the same exhaust. Loosen the clamps and actually make a twisting motion while holding the mufflers. Thats what I did and they went back alot.

alright I'll look into it. I know for a fact the "magnaflow performance" in cursive writing should be just sticking out..which it is..almost spot on. SO i might not mess w/ it but Ill definetly see if there is room to move it back...if there is its only like 1-3' Also how far back were you able to move it?

edit: it also might be the camera angle..you guys might get a better view if I actually get the whole car w/ the exhaust..in the shot.

true it is a funkey angle, but they still look far out unless your going for the 88 IROC camaro look .

I like my tips to be flush with the bumper or even 1/4 in looks clean.

But everyone has their own preference.

I was able to have the Tips completely flush with the bumper cutouts. If you like it the way it looks now than just keep it like that, but IMO Tips sticking further out than the bumper looks tacky.

agreed..i just did'nt have any room to wiggle or lee-way so thats why its sticking as far out as it currently is...otherwise I wouldve made sure it was flush.. thanks for the input sir!

Don't like the placement of the exhaust, reminds me of those 90's GM trucks that lawnmower company's drive. I'm sure it sounds nice though
