Is there a way to adjust the driver side rear muffler tips?

My driver side muffler tip is slightly off and touching the inner side of the diffuser. Is there an easy way to adjust the driver side tips? I thought someone must of hit something and it bent the exhaust but when I was under there I saw no signs of damage from curb mark.

Looks like someone backed into something or they hit on something to bend them - only real option would be to either put a big pipe in there and bend them back a little or hit a muffler shop and they will just do that for you and maybe apply a little heat if they needed

Can't really see from the pic bc it's dark, but the mufflers are adjustable. If you look under the car, you can rotate at the joints where it meets the exhaust pipes coming off the headers.

There is a clamp on the driver's side exhaust pipe, about the axle area. You can loosen the bolt, rotate the mufflers and tighten the clamp back up. Should do the job.

Mine were off too, no bump damage, don't know why they just started creeping right and burned my diffuser a little (no big deal). When I got the 2nd cats removed, the muffler shop adjusted them for me exactly as described above, big pipe and push.

I usually just kick the tips until everything's lined up, or push on it with my heel. Isn't that the right way to do it?

There is usually these rubber exhaust mounts that hold your exhaust in place, near the wheel, sometimes they get a bit weak and allow some movement of the exhaust.
Look into replacing that.
