Default Fabspeed clamps impossible to tighten up

Hello all, I bought an x-pipe from fabspeed the other day. I manage to put that in fine no issues. But when I got to the tips the clamps just won't budge. I even broke one of my wrenches trying. I tried a drill with a socket adapter and nothing, it won't move. I'm out of ideas. Any help? Did you experience this.
On the other hand with no tips the car sound did transform I get that deeper sound on idle and lower rpm. Love it

Assuming it's the same type of clamp mechanism, I had no problem tightening the tips on my recently fabricated supercup exhaust.

I'm lucky to live near them and was able to visit them explaining my problem...
they switched out the hardware and installed it for me on the spot. great customer service on their part.
I still feel like the problem was between the wrench and the floor. (Me....).
