Default A question for those riding dumped and have aftermarket exhausts..PLEASE HELP

I'm getting really fed up with my exhaust,basically i have to go through 4 speedbumps to go in/out of my subdivision or w/e,i go through them diagonally because if i dont my exhaust piping scrapes so bad i can feel the whole piping get lifted and touch the underside of the body..if i go through them diagonally i STILL scrape them bad,WTF?!?!is there any way i can make the piping physically closer to the body?i've looked at it and there's only a set of hangers holding them,(the other set just holds up the muffler)..and there is alot of room between the piping and the underside of the body when they're on those hangers,i made this shitty *** diagram to show what the hell i'm talking about,the green circle is where i want to make the pipe closer,the red is where i was wondering some new hangers can be welded on there hold that part up


sorry for the long post..i'm just really pissed at my car

Yeah you'll either have to cut the hangers and re-weld them or just take it off. That's a consequence of having a lowered car

I know how you feel. My exhaust scrapes at almost the same place too... I just picked up my ride height.
