I have noticed since getting my 2020 that the right exhaust tip is somewhat splitting. almost as if the outer shell is separating from the inside edge. This normally wouldn't concern me but the left tip is completely sealed together perfectly. Ive never backed into anything or hit the exhaust on anything so my only guess is its doing it unprovoked. I don't know if this actually will hurt anything or reduce its function, just wondering if anyone has any insight on this as I've never seen this before with a stock exhaust on any of my cars.
Also any tips on how I could fix this without welding? It feels really stiff to try to force the edges back together so it would take some heavy duty heat proof adhesive to repair it and I don't have access (or skill with) welding equipment. Plus if its not going to be a problem i'm probably not going to bother fixing it.

That is odd.If you still have a warranty I would bring it up to them and see. Unless you plan on getting exhaust anyway not probably worth the effort.

Maybe go for the IND black tips if no warranty coverage?
