Exclamation 2015 428i N20 Downpipe to Midpipe

Okay so I bought this car a month ago and decided to straight pipe it, I'm somewhat familiar with working on cars, so I bought the same exhaust as stock but its a straight pipe (No Muffler, Resonator etc.) and today I was gonna put it on but the stock exhaust comes with like a angle going to the downpipe and the one I got is just straight doesn't have that angle as the stock exhaust as u can see in the picture but it's the same exhaust from the same car so I'm wondering how do I fit it on there has anyone had this issue before?

It appears your downpipe is from an n26 and the angle is slightly different. The flanges for n20 and n26 are different. n20 uses that slip + clamp to connect to the midpipe, the n26 uses a vband connector. You can make this chnage with a visit to a muffler shop to make an adapter to make it it. Otherwise easiest way to do this is to buy a n20 downpipe and sell your n26 downpipe
