Default Raising piping for f sport exhaust?

Anyone have any ideas on how I could raise this or should I make like custom hangers? This is a f sport exhaust.

Get 19" wheels. That'll raise your whole body up.

I never have a problem with my F-Sport and Im at zero finger gap all around. It looks low, but that's right under the axle (the pivot point), so it will rarely scrape

Ya, I know having 18's is one of the reasons and ya, the only time I scrape it is when I'm going over some big speed bumps; however, I just want to eliminate this problem all together if there's an easy fix. I will be getting 19's soon I think

i used worm screw clamps around the hangers to raise my exhaust a little so it wouldn't hit against my tom's underbody brace.
