Welding Quad Tips tomorrow, what did you tell your welder?

Hey,

I'm getting my quad tips welded on tomorrow. Did you guys show pictures to your welder of how it was suppose to look? I've been trying to find some good pictures with easily viewable dimensions, but I haven't found any great ones. What info did you give your welder?

I went to my local meineke shop, show them the tips and they even question me if I was trying to get the C63 look on my c300, and the head mechanic saw the car getting the tips installed even asked me if I wanted to put an xpipe and they could make it inhouse too.

Most important thing is to get the visual alignment correct.

Is it just me, or does the right oval look off kilter or something? If so, bring it back to them and have them fix it...

I didn't notice anything in person... The tips came Pre welded so not much I can do there I guess.
