Exhaust location

Getting geared up for dual exhaust on my 06 screw. Just ordered the mangaflow high flow cats, and I've got 2 borla xr1's. Now, I've already modded it, and made it exit in front of the wheel on an angle with a slant magnaflow double wall tip laid on its side. The angles line up and it's pretty square with the bottom of the box side.

Now for the dual set up, I'd still like it in front of the tire, lightning style. But I'm unsure as whether or not to have it exit on an angle, due to the amount of bends required. Or rather have it come out at a 90 from the truck. Keep in mind there will be two pipes. Any thoughts on this? What will look better?

If the tips of choice aren't very long ( 12" max ), you could achieve the 90 degree fit & finish if the installer does the job correct. Otherwise, an 18" length tip may come toward the frame & leaf spring too close and may need an angled finish.

Angled looks better to me unless you have side-skirts like a Saleen does.
