Default Just installed Apexi Ws2 Exhaust..

Im just wondering if there is a way of raising it to keep it from being so close to the ground.. my lude isn't even lowered and it seems like the exhaust is close to the ground.. any info appreciated. thanks.

I've heard of aftermarket hangers that raise it up a bit. Youll have to search for them

EASY = take it to an exhaust shop. That is what I did because my car is slammed. It should be a piece of cake for any exhaust shop to do unless they totally suck.

yeah if you google it, many prelude owners who bought the ws2 have this problem.
i also have this problem as well. my local shops all told me the best they can do is cut and reweld it-but then you loose the powder coat..so i just left it be

lose the powder coat?? if you leave it be, it'll scrape(unless your car is hella high). that includes scraping the powder coat off anyways.

I have the WS1 and it scraped over everything. Just go to a local muffler shop and have them reposition your hangers.
