By my eyeball, those mufflers are hanging significantly lower than other designs. I was wondering if you've considered modifying (flattening) the bottom corners of those cans to help take the inevitable scrapes - particularly for those coilover folks who plan on dropping their ride.

Eagerly awaiting your follow-on info.

It won't scrape because the lowest point of the muffler is very close to the rear axles. It's purposedly designed like that so you can see the mufflers. It's lower than the lowest point of the suspenion arm by about 1".

That's good to hear. Looks excellent so far.

If you have a good pic of the car sitting on the ground, I'd like to get an idea of what it looks like for the street (even with your tail skirt mod).

What if your 8 is dropped? Any possible issues?

I do like the design - nice work.

BTW, any update on release, cost, etc.?

Here is another photo of the exhaust.

You are not going to scrape it unless you lower the car more than 3"

The release date should be between mid-Feb. to end of Feb. We are waiting for the exhaust to come from Japan. Cost on the exhaust is $600.

Thank you.
