Is this AAM COMPETITION SHORT TAIL EXHAUST sticking out too much?

YamahaR6 · 02-10-2016, 04:48 PM

Contacted AAM directly, hope they can figure something out.

I had a similar issue but only with one side (driver I believe) was slightly longer than the other side.

I adjusted both tips to make them even. So I have one tip pushed all the way in and the other as far out as it can go.

I might trim the longer side down in the future but overall it looks good. (also seems the same distance from the bumper as yours.)

Thanks for sharing.

Did you contact AAM? Any response from them?

These tips are generally adjustable. Just move them

YamahaR6 · 02-10-2016, 06:31 PM

I ready adjusted them to the closest to the pipes; but still sticking out.

Can you dremmel the slots more to allow them to slide back further?

I would rather not. I just expected it to fit like they advertised.

That looks perfect to me
I have nismo tips and they look good

Maybe its further out in real life but from these pictures I don't see it being that bad

Z&I · 02-11-2016, 11:29 PM

You got'em in backwards ...

YamahaR6 · 02-12-2016, 02:42 AM

It doesn't look terrible, but I would prefer it less sticking out.

Contacted AAM and hope they response.

Mine are just like yours, 1/2 inch out measured looking straight down from the bumper to the tip. They are a bit further out than stock, but with the burnt tips I like the look.

kenchan · 02-12-2016, 07:34 PM

yah, definitely sticking out too far for my taste too.

the other one on the earlier page is too short. should just get the fujimura cans. that u only need to do minor vertical adjustment.
