crooked exhaust

i installed a center exit exhaust a few months back. purchased used from chris at sos, so i feel pretty confident that it is not the exhaust that is defective.
here is the problem. after installed, the pipes rest about 2" to the left. very strange. i had it installed by acura and the tech said there was no way to adjust it because of the flex pipe?? anyone have any idea on what may be causing this problem or a possible fix? in desperation i had a muffler shop heat the pipe and bend the right one out about an inch to keep it from melting my valence any more.
hopefully that can be bent back successfully when / if i correct the original problem.

thanks in advance for everyones wisdom.
 
you have to wiggle it and get it aligned before you bolt it down. I had the same problem with my exhaust and simply loosened up all the bolts and got it straight before tightening it all up. Takes some time to play around and get it right - some techs are willing to settle for "good enough"
