Exhaust vibrates my bumber
Ive had my car for almost a year and this problem is steadily getting worse. the exhaust it vibrating up against my back bumper. has anyone else ever had this problem? and if so how did you go about fixing it?
have your cars ever had exhaust work done? either way a good solution is to check the little bushings that holds the muffler to the bottom of the car. If retainer bushings are still good, you might even want to get the exhaust piping re-welded past where the muffler connects to the piping, before the resonators.

mine vibrates a little..it does it under lower RPMs and sometimes to 15mph. then it stops. It doesn't do it when I am cruising or over 15-20mph. But the previous owner was in a little fender bender. I think it will go away when I get new exhaust and have it all rewelded.
it is vibrating against your tow hooks. It's either bad design, or the fact that your exhaust pipe has been extended somewhere along the path. Mine's extended 1/2" right before the main cat and only vibrates after a very hard run.
I just went under my bumper with a hammer and went to town(J/K) I think what is vibrating on mine is the heat shield between the muffler and the bumper/gas tank. The shield came off one of its bolts.

I had this problem. Owner before me must have backed over a curb or something. I took a hammer (not to actually beat anything with) and wedged it in b/t the heat shield and muffler. Took some spare wire and looped it a couple of times...no more vibrating. This will hold me until I start actually modding and whatnot.
