We actually cut my buddys and made it look like the flare came like that... Not the bet but you can see kinda where we cut the flap and made it look original

You could make them come straight out the back instead of at a 45*.

That's do able. just have them cut off the tips and save them and remount them in front of the tire. Just make sure you have enough room for you leafs to flex before getting them mounted. I hit my exhaust pipe at full flex, but nothing major.

I do and it's not any louder, but I also went form glasspacks to a quieter Borla muffler when I went from duals out the back to duals out the side. If I had it to do over I wouldn't change it. No it's not loud.

yes, it is do-able to run them out the side. you just have to run them both out one side unless you want the other one to be hanging really low to get under the driveshaft

theres only one way to run a tip out of the driver side before the wheel, and that requires getting a fuel cell.
