Default catback install question

I am about to install slp loudmouth catback exhaust, but could someone please tell me if it matters what side the pipes that go over the axle (that connect to the h-pipe) go on? The to pipes are very similar in shape... with that being said they arent exactly the same..... is this just because slp didnt fabricate them exactly alike or was this intentional?.... meaning are they left-right specific?

I don't know for sure about SLP but they should be dedicated to each side.

Look carefully, they may be marked.
