If you want, I can take some more detailed pictures and post in the next few days.

The only issue that I've had was before I installed the exhaust. The tube underneath the car was so close to the muffler that it actually made the car sound like I had a hole in the exhaust. After the exhaust install, I used a hockey puck as a washer/spacer and the noise is completely gone.

I don't know if you saw the link in my first post, but it shows some pretty good shots.
