   what exhaust bushes are people using on the supersprint back boxes?
   i am using powerflex bushes but seems to make the exhaust sit very high up close to the bumper

   you mean the rubber hangers? if its too high up it will be because the powerflex ones are stiffer than standard, id try some standard ones to see if it makes it sit lower

   Normal ones with zip ties ftw. (i can adjust to desired height) you no it it hits of the bumper, that can be annoying!

   Bend the top brackets down a bit.

   suggest to bend exhaust brackets rather than car brackets if possible

   no the aftermarket rubbers make the back box sit to high up so cable ties would make it higher
