yea no more resonators..those things scrape like no other..the piping now sits like a 1/2" higher..but that makes all the difference!! the new piping is jus more angled up..iono how to explain it..its nothing pretty..but it got the job done

ill see if i can snap a pic the next time i raise my car upI only scraped my exhaust one time, REALLY BAD. I never made that mistake again. I know where to drive now lol!
I thought I was busting the transmission pan or something when I went down that driveway, and my bumper (stock) popped off a couple of screws. It was funny at the time!

Yeah this is a thread that the guys who can and appreciate driving low can definitely relate too. No real damage for my undercarriage other than a thin clamp becoming loose after scraping a speed bump at a meet last year. It eventually fell off and caused a section of the exhaust to rattle until I put in a new clamp.

nothing really custom..i jus replaced that section that needed attention..i dont wanna get anything fancy under there because of how much i scrape..i have the apexi ws2..but thats mainly for cosmetics..eventually i will jus replace that whole piping all the way to the catback jus so it looks cleaner..but its not a big priority for me at the moment
