Default Tips aligning ARK Grip exhaust?

Hey everyone, I just installed my ARK grip on my Z, but the tips are not aligned and the left muffler hangs lower than the right. I thought these problems were resolved with the type II, but I guess not. Here's some pictures of how the exhaust sits right now. If anyone has some ideas on how to align this exhaust, please let me know. Thanks

Are the tips evenly lined up (height&length)? If so, you are out luck. There's no way of lining up the cans without disrupting the tips. Ask me how I know? ;p

Have you considered adding one to two 1/8" washers to the hanger mount bolts for the right side muffler. If you lowered it a bit, maybe that would also even out the tips.

Loosen all the bolts and try to rotate the right tubes a little towards counterclockwise and a little push up. That should probably make it level with the left can.
As far I can see the left is just perfect.
