That is one of the major drawbacks to buying off the internet, you can't see the actual parts, just pictures of facimilies with no drawings or demensions.Both of the ebay vendors, "Klass Kolections" and the Classic auto exhaust suppliers" say they bend them to exact OEM dimensions but if that is true and they have quality control, there shouldn't be a problem. The problem is even if they do replace defective or ill fitting parts, there is still additional cost of shipping back, sometimes more than once.
I have tried to find a local (50 mile radius) shop that will custom bend the pipes and can supply the mufflers and resonators but, here in the tidewater of Virginia I haven't had any luck. I saved the old tail pipe and muffler from the left side, and the right side is still intact (albeit shot full of holes)on the car. The car didn't have resonators installed when I bought it but, I would want to add them back to the system.
