WeeC- what exhaust have you got? as i've got a magnex and as we all know its got the biggest back box in the world!, so i'm not sure if lowering it 40mm at the back will be a good idea? was thinking of only doing 30mm at the back...

Got a custom made exhasut. Think the size of the oval is about 3". Never had a problem with the exhaust scrapin or been pretty close to the deck, its more at the front where i get the problems with my bumper/spletter takin a few beatings (currently the front left mountings on the bumper have come unattached:cry: ) If the exhasut is a prob then you could file (or cut) a slight indent in the black trimmin at the bottom of the bumper so it could fit the top of the exhuast in a bit tighter

yours looks lower than mine on the 40mm, but im guessing the gap between my wheel and arch is more as im on 15" alloys?.. side skirts missing makes it look a lil higher from the side 2. i need to get a few good pics up surc can stick them on his site, or what ever he does with my pics... :blink:
