So in a sense, he could just get his exhaust guy to cut off current hangers and weld new hangers on the bottom of the exhaust.

Thanks all!
I sold the TEs outright to a guy on CL. I'm really gna miss them but I can't get enough of the Weds! Got them for a pretty good deal also! Used the left over money and bought Js Air Duct, Mircle X Type 2, Front Splitter so I'm more then satisfied. Hopefully I can get acouple more things if the seller comes thru.

i was actually thinking the same thing about the exhaust hangers... but im wondering if the ex-owner did it that way coz he needed the pipes to hang to give clearance for the sideplant / cutout.

gonna go check it out again one of these days... think ill need to get some sort of a heatshield for the tunnel as well as im getting a lil bit of heat in the cabin with full interior... and i plan on stripping out the interior sometime down the road

Car does look better with those as opposed to the TE37s Timm I agree everything flows a lot better. The color was nice but this is way cleaner. Nice choice.

EK hatch has Acura EL front which is second generation Honda Domani. The EG hatch has first generation Honda Domani, which came on a four door EG shell in JPN.

Yeah, I agree! It compliments my cf parts better. Yeah, they're on Craigs to only trade for RPF1s. Nothing else. One of my all time favorite wheels!

Yeah he probably did it so he could fit that cutout on there. I would get rid of that and probably buy a whole new exhaust actually or at least a mid pipe, even if its eBay it would be better and fit up in the tunnel.

dont trade your wheels, just roll your fenders properly front and back you'll have no rubbing issues. You'll regret it once you see how sucked in 15x7 +35's would look compared to your mindsets

crxfornow, what header is that? Looks a lot like my mugen.

Also, are you keeping that IM for low end torque? Can't decide if I want to keep mine or not.
