Hey Fellas,

Any of you having clearance issues when going over humps, driveways etc?

I understand with a lowered car this will cause this to happen obvioulsy, but is it detrimental for the short-long-term life of the exhaust?

I do remember reading a few posts here and there owners saying their bpipe doesn't clear and always scrapes. When coming out of my driveway, I always scrape, but I take extra care when driving out. More of a light scratch rather than a gash scratch.

Just want to hear your thoughts and opinions, thanks.

I've got a stock ride height and with a full load i scrap my exhaust b-pipe over the hump :(

Imagine if i lowered my ride ><

my cat or resonators always scraping..
worst is when i go on one of those 'A' shaped speed humps and the whole b pipe is pushed up and hits my shifter...
doesnt hurt me as much as it use to though... im kinda over the car lol
