Default Fsport exhaust uneven after installation

Has anyone experienced one of the exhaust tip sticking out more than the other? My left tip sticks out more than the right after I installed my F-sport Exhaust. I looked to make sure all of the hangers were attached and they were. Is there something im missing or I didnt do?

Mine don't do that I just went outside with a ruler

I would probably loosen all of the bolts, wiggle every thing till if fit correctly then then do a final tighten. If that doesn't fix it I would call the people you bought it from.

did you install the exhaust by hand or air gun? if you install by air gun.. DO not use air gun to tighten the bolt.. you can you use the gun but don't tight it all the way in.. tighten by hand.. I have the same problem with the driver side sticking out more then passenger.. I went back and unbolt all the bolt and tighten by hand and is even now.. the driver side does stick out a little bit more then passenger but un-notice at all..

How much more does it stick out? Did you try tightening the bolts evenly in a pattern?
