no this is far from the truth, price =/= quality

beluga exhausts have better fitment than my CNT exhaust and thats an ebay special exhaust

im just extra pissed atm because i was stuck until 1am putting the stock exhaust back on so i can get my car off stands(i park outside)

If CNT won't help you out, you could just have the flanges cut off and welded on in the correct direction?

yes i just have to cut and reweld flanges so it fits properly
i dont have a welder unfortunately otherwise id do it myself, im probably gonna pay someone to fix it if i cant get anywhere with CNT or paypal

see i read that you had nothing but good things to say about the CNT exhaust and so did others who bought it with the exception of a few minor things

so far this is just a defect im hoping CNT will help me out here seeing as i just got it yesterday

..... idk if its from buying all this jdm parts but i must say i now know i have a high expectations for parts that go on my z..... the first thing i noticed is the welding.... the welding is like my welding.... meaning its nice but it aint phenomenal..... second... the fitment..
my god if my life depended on the fitment i would have died over and over and over. The tips stuck out 3 inches or more... they look like my gibson exhaust on my f150

even then i was like hell i can cut and weld the tips to make em shorter.... here was the deal breaker... the mounting points dont line up... and once you bolt everything nice and tight... the mufflers push my bumper upward now instead of forward like my oem muffler

i tried for an hour until accepting my defeat.... i didnt even put back my oem muffler because of how upset i was. bottom line you get what you pay for... something i learned a long time ago but was hoping this one time i was wrong.... im gonna return them.... as i dont even think they are meant for a 370z rather a G37...... which i realized after my friend with a g37 with authentic tanabes said they look exactly like his exhaust... so it rang a bell in my head....

If you want something that you KNOW is going to fit perfectly, you need a "name brand" product. I'd sooner buy a used top-tier exhaust than a new eBay/knockoff one.
