Making the tips straight and level and eliminate rubbing starts at the connection end of the Xpipe. Here we go again but having a rack helps. (The car on a rack or lift).

It takes a lot of time, patience and twisting turning pushing and pulling at every connection with a straight edge thrown in for good measure. That being said, with what you have installed can we assume you carry ear plugs?
