That is not acceptable I would imagine the wider apart would be correct fitting to fill out the space on the body imha

Thanks, Rab. Agreed. Photos are with the OPC - waiting on their proposal to sort...

I do wonder if the inside one on the right isn't a left hand one fitted upside down??

Wing Co
I never liked the single tailpipe on any Porsche but can’t believe having spent a few hundred pounds that your OPC have fitted the four single pipes in that way ,I’m like you a little OCD but it should not have been returned like that ,let the service manager know you’re not impressed,not only that it’s the messing about having to return back to the OPC.

Agreed, Steve. The Service Manager and department are aware. If it's a simple fix, I might suggest that they get Swindon to do it. The same group, but much nearer to my home. :geek:
