Question Factory Tips Not Lined Up?

I was walking towards my car the other day and I noticed one of my tips sticks out more than the other. I think the right exhaust tip sticks out less than the left one.

1) is this normal?
2) is there an easy adjustment to fix this?

hey good point! i dont know why i didnt think of that. i just bought the car off a friend so that is possible. is there any easy way to determine that? i'm assuming there's no way easy to adjust it back. I'm kind of looking for an excuse to buy a nismo exhaust here for myself anyway -- especially since i just accomplished something pretty big and I think a reward is in order.

Question

mine's barely noticable so i'm not too worried, but if i could find a used nismo exhaust that has perfectly lined up tips i'd probably go for it. TofuProductions, werent you looking to trade yours for a Fast Intentions or something?

Next time your cars on the rack getting her oil changed, check to make sure all the exhaust system hangers are on correctly. Those donut hangers being off/misalligned could make an inch difference or so....
