    i've just fitted a scorpion back box and it is pushed up against the recess in the bumper, i want to drop it down a little bit. can i get longer rubber mounts or is it a case of just bending the hangers?

    Does it catch on the top left corner of the cut out?

    could try some rubbers from a different car to be fair, or just bend them. I havent got round to doing mine

    Your centre section will need to be rotated slight about the cat/cat pipe. If the end of the centre section is down too much it cause the tip of the backbox to rise too much and thus hit the bumper.
