People with CIA exhaust

Ok well I've been doing some research on what exhaust i plan on getting and I really like the CIA but there's only one thing as of right now that I don't like with it and that's how it sticks out farther than the bumper. I don't understand why they made them so long. I remember reading on their site that all their products are hand made so would I be able to ask them to make the exhaust so that its the factory length? What are your thoughts on this?

i remember hearing something about cia not making the tips but i didnt know how true that was. anybody know a good site that sells exhaust tips? would you consider this exhaust to be louder than hahn cuz i like hahn's exhaust but its a little too quiet for me during normal driving. is cia louder during normal driving?

CIA sells the tips as well. The picture you are seeing is mine and i had my tip put out like 1/2 an inch furhter then the stock on since we had fire coming from the exhaust and i didnt want my rear bumper burnt like you see on some other peoples, just a pre-caution for myself

Is your Muffler mounted slightly crooked/tilted? It looks great I was just curious if the pictures made it appear crooked. Thanks!!!
