Default New exhaust

I finally got my bike out of the shop yesterday, I just went outside to get my Yoshi slipon installed but it wont fit, its like there is a piece missing or the pipe doesnt have the correct bends, am I missing some hardware? I purchased it on eBay and made sure it was for an f4i but apparently 'making sure' isn't good enough. Any help will be greatly appreciated guys! Really was excited about it

Sorry I havent been active, guys, I have been away from my computer helping my mother remodel her new house!

I messaged the seller of the exhaust letting them know the issue, I received a reply stating somebody posted incorrect information. I was told I will receive a full refund upon shipping it back which is great, but its sad knowing I cant use it

I just installed my under tail and a few other goodies and started looking at it a bit closer; because its such a small gap, wouldnt one be able to cut a piece of exhaust pipe to tie the header and slip on together? Or is there no way in hell an f4 exhaust would work on an f4i in the first place? I am just looking at my options at the moment, I have my eye on a Micron and Yoshi for my bike but it would be nice to skip the waiting on another to come in and just mangle what I have a little!

Buy the correct part, don't honkey stuff together if you can help it. My ebay yosh fit perfectly both times [rear ending smashed my first one]. Its worth waiting to do things right.
