you can always realign your exhaust or you can try to find a universal heat shield that best matches your bumper

i think the best bet might be realigning exhaust with a diff hanger, just don't know which one i would get to retrofit it to my exhaust and extend it. I would buy a universal heatshield instead if i could find one for our cars

Is it just the left tip? I heard you can have the hanger on the exhaust bent to lower it

You can either bend the hanger or unbolt the hanger and add washers between the hanger and body to create downward space.

When I installed my exhaust on my Z, I had to drop the center crossmember to make some extra space for the X-flow pipe. I also added washers on my Altima Coupe on the two hangers for my Greddy Spectrum Elite to drop down a tad to add clearance for the tips.
