You can simply take the car to a decent exhaust garage and get them to raise your catback piping higher into the exhaust piping niche. This can be done with either your stock or an aftermarket catback. You should take a look at changing your catback since you've got a leak...

One of the funniest things last night was watching all the dropped Civics tip-toe into Sylvania maccas on an angle - I just bumped in head on ;) I had to raise mine as everytime I tried to get out of the driveway the crossmember would scrape - not to mention the exhaust as I came out of work's driveway.
