First of all, Merry Christmas to you fine, helpful folks. I have a Kohler 3/4" Rite-Temp shower valve. All is well, except my tile guy didn't run the tile close enough to plastic plaster guard, so when I installed my Stillness trim, there's a sizeable gap at the top of the valve trim. It's...

All, On the attached photo, I have 1/2" PEX running into my tub/shower. My question is simple: should I leave the PEX as it is, using the bend supports, or should I cut it and install 90 degree elbows. This is Uponor, in the event that matters. Thanks!
