Default rubbing issue

recently installed integra (DC) stock front sway bar and front lower control arms on my EK hatch. i have a skunk 2 short shifter (dual bend) and a 2.25 inch exhaust. the shifter is either hitting the sway bar or exhaust (hard to get into 1st and second gear)and the sway bar seems to be hanging down abnormally low... anyone else have this problem. other than that the car feels great.

can you post some pics of it. so we can see. Most likely you installed it wrong. since it only started doing this after you did the sway bar

Sorry to be off topic but how do you like your dual bend short shifter? I was looking into the Skunk brand but was unsure of the quality.
