So my mechanic just tells me the passenger side exhaust will fit no worries but the drivers side is an issue. Thoughts???

Could you bolt it to a face plate in the vice, then heat all the pipes red hot and bend it down a bit until it fits.

Can you do that? It does sound like an easy solution but probably something I would get the exhaust guy to look in to.

I have just had my Pace pipes modified so that they have adequate clearance when heat shields are fitted. On mine the drivers side is fine but the passenger side needed 2 pipes cut and rewelded to give good clearance.

Even though they are made on a jig there is some variation I guess.

Cheers,

Ben
