The one they make for the newer 987 models are now made without the can sticking out low. They probably noted the complaints of folks who bought the earlier unit. The one for the 986 model (which is what 2000SoCalBoxsterS has), still has the single can unit that stick out from under the bumper.

Also, the issue is not the way the muffler is installed, it's just that with the 986 unit, they made it such that the muffler can is oriented vertically (which makes it stick out lower than the bumper), as opposed to horizontally, which is how they designed it for the newer 987. Look closely at the pictures of both their 986 version and the 987 version, and you'll see what I'm talking about.
