Well your no good

So it looks like they don't fit when an XE is in there... learn something new everyday.

It will fit with an XE/LET, depending on where it is from. They are fundamentally flawed in design by having a non-braced 90 degree bend at the location points.

I have one and it will be altered accordingly.

Mine isn't on at present time, I have lined it up and it will fit though bear in mind I have a full custom system from the turbo back so that may cause issues on other cars?

Pictures of what exactly? You can see the design flaw I was refering to in the pictures on here already, all the force will congregate in the corner of that 90 degree bend.

Not sure if that's what you are refering to?
