Default Help with Skunk2 Exhaust (fit question if you have this exhaust)

Whats up guys...

So, I just got done putting my Skunk2 megapower dual exhaust and Berk test pipe on my MY05. The problem is that I had a 3" single exhaust before and only had two of the rubber hangars left. I dont know for sure, but I think they may have been two of the OEM hangars that were left. So, all I could do for the time being was grab a couple from the parts store. The holes were the same distance apart, but they are much stiffer. Now, my question is about the way it lines up and what route to take going forward. How can I adjust this and make the exhaust more even in the back? Should I just go order OE replacement rubber hangars or do you think I could just swing by an exhaust shop and see what we could do? I took the hangars off of the passenger side because it held it too high and it touched the rear bumper, but you can still see how it needs to be moved over to the passenger side a little

Order the hangers first before you start bending metal

Mine was on an AP1 but the alignment was spot on with OEM hangers.

Got the OE hangers on today and that fixed the side to side alignment. But, the passenger side sits a bit higher than the drivers side so I may try to bend the rear most metal hanger on the passenger side down slightly. I'm not so sure it didn't get bent up a little when I had my last single exit exhaust made. But it lines up perfectly without the ight rear most hanger installed. Thanks for the help guys.
