Right Borla Tip Crooked

Anyone else have this problem? My roomate and I both have borla, and the right tip leans to one side. I've seen it on several other cars around here and a few of the f-body's at the show in New Orleans. It looks like they just put the tip on at a slight angle off of the flange where you put the plates in. It's no real problem I guess, but kind of annoying when you pay 600 bucks for exhaust and it doesn't even look right.

Thats funny...... your left seems to sag lower and your right looks pretty straight. My left tip sits high and straight and the right sags and leans to the right.

Thats a pic I found of our cars. It might be hard to tell since the pic isnt really going for that, but if you look hard you can see it on both. I might take a pic tomorrow so you can really see how bad it is now.

All I have to do is rotate the left tips clockwise and it will be straignt. Right one looks straight because I change out the plates often and adjust the tips afterward. What really bugs me is my rear driver side of the car sits alittle higher than the passenger side. Seems to be a common problem on these fbodies. That makes it hard to keep the tips level. But it is possible is you play with it long enough.
