Exhaust Tip Alignment
I have been looking at different exhaust mods for my basically stock 2000 coupe. Was wondering about tip alignment on the B&B Bullets. The pics I have seen of this system have flanges instead of clamps on the over the axle pipes. How can you align the tips?? Are they bent perfectly from the factory so the line up?? I have a set of Ti mufflers on and the are close, but not perfect. 
Being that I am borderline obsessive/compulsive, I want a nice fit and finish. Also, any input on which system sounds best?? I like the Ti's, but I am looking for a little more growl. Thanks for any help!!

dajael...When I had my B&B's installed the guy got them aligned and put a spot wel where the clamp is to hold them in place. He said that is very common with B&B and jusyt to come back if they ever become crooked. Haven't had to go back yet. :knocks on wood:

You can move to Houston, TX we have at least two shops that can get them perfect. In fact if you call supporting vendor Corvettes of Houston and ask for Jim in Service. Ask him how they do it and I'll bet they will give you some guidance.

I haven't put my Ti's on yet. This is good to know before I get in there. It was a concern of mine but I'll check it out. I was thinking that you bent the bracket that goes into the hanger to get them aligned.
