Exhaust rubbing on diffuser

I just bought a used exhaust and one of the tips is rubbing against the diffuser. The other side is perfectly aligned. Is there any thing I can do besides going to a shop to get it fixed? I was looking into the kartboy extended hangers, but not too sure about them.

The extended rubber hangers should solve it.
If it is barely rubbing it should give you the clearance you need.

It's odd that only one side is rubbing though.

What exhaust is it? If one side is good and the other is not then something is wonky.

Its the GReddy CS-GTS Ver. 2 , it retails for 1500 so this shouldn’t happen.

I would try loosening up every bolt up to the cat, let it rest, and then tighten up again. With it being a Greddy exhaust in that price range, it should fit perfectly.
