Not liking this design for the tailpipe should have just kept it single. Exhaust flow takes the path of least resistance. You will have more exiting the left than right side. I know from experience, I've seen this happen before first hand on a buddies car.

you can now add stainless steel on the website

by the way, for sales use this thread instead ---> http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=36571

The exhaust are custom made as you order so I accept the fact that it's a "normal imperfection". Loving the sound
I thought this misalignment was fixed! I just got mine installed today 11/21/13 after receiving it yesterday and can see the slight off balance that is shown in this photo. I agree, I'll accept it as a normal, hand made imperfection with a great sound, but you should know it's still an issue.

I noticed the installer used all 4 rubber mounts. Your instructions say to use just 3. It looks like you don't use the mount nearest the front on the driver's side. Is this right? Maybe that's what is causing the misalignment.
