Corsa exhaust help

[5starr0]

I have had my corsa exhaust now for a few weeks and think they are great. I have one problem and I'm sure you guys know what the answer is. When I installed the exhaust the tips fit perfectly after adjustments within the cut outs of the valence. I looked at them today and they were drooping down and resting on one side of the valence. I attached a pic but it is hard to see exactly what I mean. What do I need to adjust for these to stay in place in the center of the cut out?

New metal. You need to readjust them in the valence and tighten the clamps again. After that they'll stay put.

Ok so second time they will stay, that's interesting I'll give it a whirl

Push the mufflers up while you tighten the clamp,that's what worked for me.

Helps to have someone push them up while you tighten things. Mine were sagging so I loosened and retightened the midpipe clamps and all the other bolts while my bud held things in place.

I did the with the original install. It needed to go up and to the left so we did that twice till it was perfect. Guess riding around it came loose, hopefully one last adjustment and tighten will keep it in place. I don't want to do this every few weeks.

Also make sure to torque the nuts to the reccomended specs.

I second this.

I did mine on jackstands by myself. I had to lay on my back under the muffler and push it up until it hit the top of the cutout with one hand and wrench it tight with the other. When I let the muffler go it fell to the center of the cutout and I used a torque wrench to tighten to the specs on the directions. It hasn't moved.
