I got my car back from the exhaust shop today. Not pleased with uneven exhaust tips. Taking it to another shop to have that fixed on Saturday. But the sound, wow. I call my car Blanche and she used to be a classy lady, now she nasty!

Any reason not to take it back to the shop that did the install? Getting tips to align is both art and science but a competent shop should be able to handle it. I'd hate to see you pay twice.

Well I set the expectation up front that tip alignment was of high importance to me. Then when I came to provide my extra key (guy lost my ignition key) I pointed out to him it was not to my liking and he agreed to fix but still didn’t get it right. So, I paid a reduced price due to the lost key but I’m ready to try another place.
