Default Megan Drift Spec Angled Look

So pretty much have my heart set on the invidia mid-pipe/megan drift spec setup. Just wondering how many of the Drift Spec owners actually had the exhaust corrected due to the angle of the canisters?

Unless you can get it at a really good price, why get this exhaust if you don't like the angled look? It will cost more money to have to bend/weld the exhaust straight. Other exhausts are straight, why not consider those?

Just curious to see how many Drift spec owners actually changed how the exhaust look, thats all. I planned on keeping it the way it is when I get it.

I have the drift spec and cannot wait to install on my car. The outward look I think is FTW, but if I had a second choice I would go with a Greddy SP.....if you don't like the angled look go with that then imo.

I forgot mention the name who i bought it from.. TEAMSNCHRIS... We did communicate about the money and how long it take to ship.. Problem was after I put them on, I have issue about angle way off.. I told him can u help me solve this problem.. He call Megan distributor about the angle issue.. He told me this is for the AWD.. I was like WHAT!!! I want to replace them and my ride is RWD... HE said ok I will give u a new one and u give me the old one back but never did.. Later he dont communicate with me anymore.. What a loser... Dont even buy any parts from him on Club Lexus Vendor Marketplace.. He lied to me and not responsible to replace them... OH WELL

a muffler shop will be able to heat it up and shove a long pipe in there to straighten it up.

He is right or have them make you a center section, it will be a true dual tho. Food for thought bro!

i have em on my 250, and i like the angled look. I will say though that they do get dirty quickly and dont hold a nice shine for very long (or i am just really bad at keeping them clean?). Regardless, i love the sound, you'll be happy with them
