impossible. If i switched L pipes the hangers would be aimed toward the ground.

Yep, I was tempted to modify it and it got the best of me. After a few hours of heating, bending, cutting and adjusting I think I got some decent results. First, I cut down the hanger to the correct height and then bent it to the correct position. Then I cut about 3/4 inch off of the driver side outlet on the muffler and the same off of the inlet on the driver side tail pipe that way it could be pushed more toward the center of the car.
The passenger tail pipe is pushed as far off of the muffler as possible without leaking (you can see where the clamp is) so the tip can move away from the center. Before The driver side tip was 10 3/4 inch from the center and the passenger was 9 1/2 inch, Now its about 10 1/4 inch on the driver side and about 10 inches on the passenger side. Its still not perfect but good enough. Its also nice to see the hanger working as it should now.

Nice fix - always scary of aftermarket fitment.

Is the '04 sticker on the license plate an overlooked item?

I like the sound has a deep mellow rumble at low rpms, pretty quiet when cruising around and gets a little louder during spirited driving. Best of all no drone. I forgot to mention those measurements are to the edge of the license plate on that side not to the center of the car. The 4 on the plate is the month not the year good till 4/2017.
