Bumper Fire???? Exhaust Tips

For the months (9? 10? not certain) that my tip was actually touching the shroud on top, I just laid a piece of HVAC metal tape against the shroud. It's really only an exhaust cover touching the bumper shroud, not the exhaust tip itself.

Yeah it did take me about 30 minutes to elongate the hole with a dremel.

I will work on it again today trying my other possible solutions to see what works.

you can also try shimming out the muffler bracket with some washers , which will push it down . you can also use the shims to balance out fitment for centering the out let pipes. i used some 3/8" thick brass bushings to get good fitment.

i think the problem is that the test pipes are a little bit on the long side. so shim or cut is your option. i like the look of the pipes sticking out a little more than the stock ones.

That is what I am doing. I have about 20 thin washers that my work was recycling. I am going to use them as spacers and let the entire system move back further, which will make the tips stick out the bumper maybe another inch but thats okay. I just have to find longer bolts from homedepot or lowes.

I will let you know how it goes. I also put together a DIY video with new exhaust sound. I will post that in the DIY thread soon.

What I love about this exhaust is that it feels stock. No rattling. No drone. Sounds stock at idle and under 2500rpm so I won't wake everyone when leaving the house late nights. And then it turns into a GT3-like loud sound when you floor it. It is especially amazing in tunnels and under highway bridges.

The Combination of Washers and Dremel worked perfectly for both angle and height.
