mess with the rubber hangers and they will fit without rubbing. Or I've heard other people buy some aftermarket rubber hangers. Mine rubbed at first, but was fixed after altering the hangers.

I have an apexi n1. it fits perfect. The muffler is like 2 cm from the bumper, but it doesnt touch. dont worry about how close it is. all my friends that have the N1 sit like that. it will be okay

I wonder if there are longer rubber hangers you can buy. Or stick a heat refective tape along the underside of the bumper.
