I measured like 50x and they still arent perfectly straight. 1 or 2 of them are inwards more than the others. Its really hard to align them perfectly coz the side skirt curves inwards and theres no flat section and the side skirt is also 2 pieces.
And I'm definitely not taking them off again to align them perfectly straight. It took way too much of my time and idgaf anymore lol

Awesome build! Your LS looks great so far. Always thought mikes muffler was the place to go...I'm guessing the other shop in Arcadia is just as good?
