Default H22 EG owners - Anyone not have a mangled dented header?

Just wondering if any H22 Eg swap ppl have managed to make a header last? I'm on my 2nd one and it's now dented and crimped pretty badly. I have the tokico RAK adjustable coilovers at full height, and on full tight, but I still manage to scrap (pretty sue i'm riding as high if not higher than stock).

Right now I have a megan header, my last one looked like a cheap ebay header too... i'm wondering if I have any better options as far as clearance, and what other people are running?

Thanks!

the only options you have are raising the cars height through either higher suspension or larger wheels and tyres.

with hasport mounts my sump/header clearance ain't that bad although i do tend to keep my eye on the road alot more when driving my civic compared to my daily. throw up some pics of your clearance.
