After thinking it over all night, I decided to go with the less troublesome approach.
Making a tail pipe as a standalone piece would be a lot of work, so… (in my case)
I’ll cut right through it.
I’ll reuse the base fitting, then align the edges carefully and tap it into place.
Rather than make an exhaust bracket, I’ll weld a boss and shift the position.
I’ll fine-tune the alignment a bit more and then weld it.
At this point, it’s difficult to raise the tail pipe any higher.
It’s a small difference, but it really does look a lot more stylish.
That’s all for today!
