Milltek fit & finish problems
Has anyone had any problems with the fit of their Milltek exhausts? After putting on a few thousand miles, I've noticed that the tips are hanging unevenly. One side was lower than the other, one tip is angled slightly down (the other is level) and one sticks out about half an inch more than the other. I've taken it back to the installer for adjustment, but I was told it's normal since they're handmade. Maybe I'm a perfectionist, but I'm not too happy about this and feel like I'm being blown off by the shop.
Any advice?

Sounds like a installer problem....
I've seen Milltek's on many cars and it 99% of the time it is the installers fault as to why it isn't hanging properly.
If the spacing doesn't look right you can adjust the piece between the piping.
If one side is hanging to high or to low, try using hose clamps on the hangers to keep it exactly where you want it.
Good Luck

I had the dealer install mine at first...
because I thought I would pay extra to be sure it was perfect. They charged me $120, and the tips were crooked and the thing would shift around. I took it to the local muffler guy ("Wayne's mufflers"). For $35, they completely disassembled the kit and reinstalled it perfectly.
Find somebody that does mufflers all day long.
