Default Need Opinions On My Exhaust... Help A Kid Out

Okay so ive been very happy with everything ive done to my exhaust thus far...

I made a bracket this past weekend and even it turned out great...

my question is...

what do you think about its mounting angle... does it look good or does the exhaust need to be closer up and in to the body?

i am unfortunately a perfectionist so this has been bugging me

The mounting anlge looks good, it looks like its running with the tail angle and i like that. I cant tell from the pics how close it is to the body (not up and down but side to side distance). But all in all it looks good. Nice job.

thx man i just added one more so you can get a feel for its distance in and out...

i tried really hard to get the vertical part of the mid pipe parallel to the swing arm... otherwise it severely bugs me

Looks great like it is. Maybe leave it that way for awhile & see how you like it. You can always change it later.

Looks good and straight to me from the rear. Kind of hard to tell from the side angle pic's if the pipe angle is perfect with the tail. It looks closer at the front and wider at the rear but it may just be the angle.

It definitely looks good as is buuut i like everything to be tight and clean. Id take the bracket off real quick and move it closer (up and in) and see if it looks better.

edit: after looking at that last pic id definitely move it up a little higher. Maaaybe in a little more but definitely up.
