I'd be taking it one step further and slash cut them to conform to the diffuser. Each to their own I guess.

Length wise after cut they look better.
But IIRC that Ti burnt finish probably costs extra, so that money went down the drain.
As it's custom made, it's mistake of either customer not voicing wish of specific length, or maker messing up a bit during design phase, or due reusing ready components (those tips look as welded part of mufflers?) + clearance limits.
At end it's all fine if you, as owner, are happy with result. Some extra costs and some extra time needed to reach it .. well, things happen

Looks much better now, well done!

It’s a little less complicated than that. Local shop had all mufflers imported with tips burn, so I had nothing to choose from. Selection of shops doing custom exhaust setups is very, very limited where I live. So there you have it.

Thanks. Had to cut a tiny bit deeper than intended but I wanted to make sure the burn blue color is gone. Though I’m happy with final results.

Well, the exhaust sound was so deep that I had to install silencers which brought it it to perfect tone. Love the sound, didn’t like their mirror finish look of the silencers:

Painted silencers in matte black, here is the final look:
