Default Exhaust problem on EG with WW RS KIT

I just had a full WW RS kit installed on my EG and the tip on my Apexi Dunk is touching the rear lip. I had the shop bend the hangars a bit to try and lower the exhaust but still not good enough. Has anyone else had the same problem as me? I spoke to the shop and they're suggesting having the tip bent into an oval shape (kinda like the Greddy SP). Any suggestions? TIA

Edit: My Apexi Dunk exhaust tip is now oval shaped. It really doesnt look that bad at all but I think it still needs a little more squashing cause there's still barely any room between the tip and the rear lip. Looking back, I should have just had the rear lip cut but I didn't wanna mess up my kit.

Do you guys think the Greddy SP shaped tip or the Tanabe G-Power tip would look better? I need a suggestion on how I should shape my exhaust. BTW, reshaping my tip back to it's original state isn't gonna work so please just some helpful advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

interesting. my spoon n1 exhaust rattles against the STOCK bumper, and i havent even mounted my WW rs kit yet. so the ww rs lip wont help i'm guessing.

did you think about trimming the rear lip to fit your exhaust as well?

I considered trimming my rear lip but the way the lip is made, it kinda wraps underneath and I didn't think it would look right if I cut it. From talking to other people, it seems even the stock exhaust hits against the rear lip so I think you're definitely gonna come across the same problem I did with your N1.
