The things is crooked

Ok. What would you do? It was onthe rack and I w3atched him put it on but it looked crooked. I asked him about it and he said you really cant tell until you get it down. Well, we got it down and it still looked crooked. The guy told "once its set its set" No going back. Umm?! Got it home, looked again. Sure enough, one side is different that the other. Got the tape measure out and one tip is 3 1/2 inches off from the other. Make them fix it?

Dual exhaust out the sides

That's straight up crap! At the exhaust shop I've had all my trucks fixed up at they will do anything you ask them to about pipe angles and tip locations. Nothing is welded until I say it's exactly to my specs.

Make them fix it. FWIW, I wouldn't have paid for it if it wasn't right in the first place. That's pretty crappy service if you ask me.

well, he said "you really cant tell for sure until its on the ground" ...so I thought to myself "self, this guy is pretty old and has to have been doing this for a while. should i call him on it now or later." i guess i chose later. its a local place. i called them and explained my dilema and they said to bring it back and they would fix it. we'll see. just for my own info, how much of a pain is it to fix now that its a day old? just cut the hangers and reset it?
