Ive just received my kit, and placed my rear bumper up against the car to see how low itll be. The holes in the carzone bumper look like they are gonna sit just too high for the exhaust so i need to make it higher so it peeks through the hole.
Is this an easy job that any mechanic can do be modding the exhaust hangers or is it a job for a specialist such as powerflow?
Additionally id like to make it stick out of the bumper more aswell if i can, because i think when i get the bumper on its only just gonna poke through the mesh slightly.

cheers

Just use cable ties... better than hangers anyday, an easier to fix an use...
Choose your exact height... an duct tape them up once done...
