Got the exhaust about an hour ago... No obvious damage to the packaging but was on my way into work and haven't opened it yet. I'll see how it looks inside when I get home, later tonight.

Berk is sending me a replacement for the back part to exchange but in the mean time they said i could keep the current one they shipped and try to tweak it myself. I almost fixed it 100% but it's still not quite there. It will do for now until my new rear section comes.
Oh and this is without any other modifications. No nuts, no washers just bolted the way it's suppose to be. After i tried the "washers fix" I experienced a very annoying vibration and removed them.

Here is an actual video of UPS unloading Berk exhaust off the docks.

This is how mine bolted up only the driver side was a tad lower than the passenger. |

I turned it upside down and put a 2x4 wrapped in a towel to prop up the lower end and i stood on the tall end which in my case would have been the passenger side. It just bent ever so slowly. Then i got the same 2x4 and tried to raise the driver side up a bit.
That was the best i could do since i don't have any tools to properly bend it. As for the lic. plate being crooked I did that on purpose to make an optical illusion that the exhausts weren't crooked.

Do you happen to know if the Berk exhaust is 'lower/higher" to the ground compared to stock? Do you happen to have a 'before' picture for comparison purposes?
Just need to know if scraping issues might occur. Lastly, are the tips (both left and right) centered to the cutout? In looking at the picture, it appears that the side-to-side width of the left-and-right tips are a tad narrow. Thanks. Quote:
