: Weird MBRP tailpipe angle?

Installed a 4" MBRP cat-back today on my 2006LBZ CC/SB, no problems. Everything is plumbed fine and hung straight, but the tail pipe looks like it's hanging down at about 40 degrees from horizontal and it just looks weird to me...I'd assumed it would be closer to horizontal. The pipe is about 1-inch from the spare tire. Is this sharp drop angle normal or did the hanger get welded at the wrong angle, or did the install go bad? I'll post a photo after this weekend, but any ideas?
Thanks.

Just loosen up the clamp on the tail section where it attaches to the muffler and lift up on the tail section to the height you want it. You can then retighten that clamp and it will stay. If it is close to your spare, take a pry bar and pry the spare tire away from it. The spare tire has quite a bit of wiggle room.

Done, thanks Nate.
Great service and pricing, by the way.
