Yes there is.

Just drive up to your local muffler shop, ask them to make your exhaust tips to be symmetrical and exit the rear skirt evenly.

Have a cup of coffee and read a car magazine ....... when they say it's done, check them out to make sure you're happy.

Pay them about $50 and drive home.

Take a good nap, now that your mind is at ease.

The claims adjuster told me the repair would involve removal of front fender and that's when I paused. I've, noticed many complaining of large exterior gaps post repair. Worst, drooping fenders.

Call a PDR person, make an appointment, he/she will make it all better. Pay them about $100, have a beer and watch the game.

That's a wonderful idea man thank you ❤! Now gotta find a "local muffler shop". I'd rather pay that 50 or even 70 to get it perfect than screw it up myself lol

If you lived closer, you could bring your car into Bubba's shop ...... he is real good at custom modifications ......

From what I can tell it's the tip that's bent, there is a bend in the back of the tip at the top. Time to take the hammer to it. Thanks all for your help

Now, THAT is a nasty looking piece of exhaust system ......

Yep, have the muffler shop take a cutting torch to it and weld it back on straight .....

Then, just don't look under there no more .....

Thanks for your input! It's dirty because I live in Ontario where the roads are salted like hell. I sprayed wd 40 to take it out myself but I think I'm Guna look for a shop to do it properly haha.
