Im not doubting Gruppe-S theyve been pretty solid, and I know the mishap with the exhausts was out of their hands, Im just anxious for a new one!!!

I ddidnt have to cut anything. Its just the muffler sat way too far left, way off center, most of the time burning up the left inside corner of the bumper

I have a Helix catback with the same problem...in fact I have it using only the right hole for the muffler hanger so that it can sit somewhat in the center. It works but causes the midpipe to hit the underbody when the car goes over bumps. Can I still get in on this claim?

Yeah, Gruppe-S do it for all of us.
I just took off my helix catback and put back the stock catback ( I just got an exhaust too loud ticket
).
Let us know.

I just put back my Helix on my car. Somehow, I made it fit really nice this time. I don't know why It fits so good now. May be my hangers got stretched? It still needed that losing 1 bolt mod. But, If I can make a small bridge between those 2 holes and bolt those on, It will be really soild and tight as the stock.
