Default b-pipe hangs low?

I'm running a skunk2 b-pipe with a test pipe, and as you can see in the pic that you can see my resonator and piping hanging low. Are most of your exhausts like that, or is this not really normal? Doesn't really bother me too much, but I would like to go lower without having to worry about scraping the hell outta the resonator. It seems like it's not really an issue with the hangers being low, cuz they are pretty tucked up there.

I once had the same problem, but it may be different. One of the rubber hangers came off the hook, causing the piping to droop lower. It sorta looked like the picture you posted.

I scraped all over the place and you can easily see the midpipe hang lower than usual. This is also a stock system.

yea, mine hangs low. I have a Apex World sport, and it scrapes on speedbumps all the time. Annoying as hell, but normal.

I have a Tanabe Racing Medalion and mine hangs low as well...

I just have to be careful not to scrape. I haven't had any problems though, maybe I'm not as low as you are...

I can definately see mine hanging below my car when you are looking from the side...
