pic of your exhaust, Y- pipe hanging low?
Hey guys, I am currently very paranoid about my Y-Pipe scratching the floor everytime i drive, it seems like it is the lowest point of the car. I have f-sport exhausts on my is250. Its lowered on bcr coils with a finger width gap on 18 in SA55m, when i crawl under, it looks like the pipe is 2-3 inches from the floor.
anyone can share their pics of their exhausts, either fsport or not, and share their solutions or they left it.

Yes the Y pipe is the lowest point of the car. It will only scrape if you go over a speed bump straight on. I have scratched it a couple times, but due the rubber hangers, it holds up perfect.

Sorry for the iphone photo, but the brace hangs down probably half an inch more than the Y-pipe
As for the drop, this is where I stand currently. If I have 2 or more passengers, I DO scrape the brace
