Default Sidepipe owners... need a pic please.

I'm in the process of making my own sidepipes and am ready to cut off the end (90 deg. bend welded to the pipe). What I'd like to know (or see) is the angle of the rear opening. Is it parallel to the body/pipe or is it angled slightly towards the rear more?
Thanks.

If you mean the opening right in front of the back wheel, it should point down and away. Not straight sideways, not straight down.

I have pics, but I can't get to my home page from here...
