Default S2000 ap2 bumper on an AP1

Hey, I have a HKS hi-power dual exhaust on my AP1 with an AP2 rear bumper, and the problem I'm having is that the exhaust would touch the rear bumper and burn it. Is there any hangers or something to make it hang lower and prevent that? Thanks.

Yes, go to any exhaust shop and they can adjust/modify the exhaust to fit with no issue..

I just adjusted the hangers on the car and exhaust in order to fit an ap1 Mugen exhaust with an ap2 rear bumper. One muffler was sitting too close to the bumper. Put a decent sized vice grip on the hanger and bend it to move the exhaust away from the bumper. I find bending the vehicle body hanger to be easier than bending most exhaust system hangers but you can do either. If you aren't comfortable doing it have an exhaust shop do it for you, I just find that most exhaust places blow it way out of proportion as it is such a simple procedure, and they make it seem like it is a major project, one shop even told me that they may need to cut and re-weld the exhaust system. I got tired of talking to idiots I just went home and took a set of vice-grips to the hangers and did it myself.
