No, if you reread my post you'll see that I said that I moved them after installing the diffuser. Just with a pry bar, they are about half an inch away which should be fine until I get the new tips

Yeah, a good exhaust shop should have no problem centering your mufflers and welding on the tips.

I see these posted around but their examples show no 5th Gen Camaros... will these fit? Do i need them to be smaller in length? These are 11.5"... I'm afraid it will stick out too much.

Does anyone know where to get good direct fit tips for 1LE diffusers?

Here's what I'm looking at, interested in 2.5" inlet 4" outlet.

Thanks!

-edit-
these look like theyd work but they're only 3" outlet. anyone know if there are 4" available? and theyre only 10" length... does that mean the others are too long?
Take a look here. I recently went through the same thing. Very happy with the tips.

Newage, what part did you have to fab up? I am having my quads welded in this week. It would be nice to give the exhaust guy some direction ahead of time.

I had to have the outlet pipe cut back an inch or so because these tips were longer than my SLP. He also heated the hanger and bent it so it would utilize the stock isolator. My old tips bolted on, so with these they had to be welded. Also, take note if you get the 2.5 inch outlet... they were actually a little larger, so make you exhaust guy aware or either have him measure. My guy worked some magic to make it work perfect.
