330i Exhaust Question

I Recently had a new exhaust center section fitted to resolve a vibration issue. It now seems that when the exhaust is hot after a run, the tailpipes protrude further out the back. When cold, they return to what I'll call a "normal" position. We're talking about a difference of ~15mm

I don't remember this happening before. Does anyone else notice this?

Obviously hot things expand and cold contract, but I don't remember this happening before and wonder if the new exhaust was fitted correctly

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

Doesn't sound right to me, I'd bring it back in.
