Default Tanabe Installed...Questions

over the weekend i got a chance to install my tanabe exhaust. i dont like how low my exhaust sits. question is did u guys modify your hangers or rubber hangers or did you just leave it as is

i dont wanna do too much fabrication so i was considering getting new rubber hangers that maybe shorter then the oem ones.

this is what i had in mind:

Just get two large zip ties (each muffler) and adjust the alignment by puting the tie on/around the rear muffler rubber hangers. Just put it around the perimeter of the rubber hanger and tighten until both tips are centered in the bumper openings.

The ties dont touch any part of the muffler. The ties go around the rubber hanger itself. The rubber does not get hot at all.
