Ahhhh it is for an e36. Yeah they have more room to tuck it up. Is there room to cut the rear metal apron to push it up more? I did that to both mine and my brother's e30 to gain ground clearance from the subframe.
Other than that I love it, clean and proper. Refreshing from most "builds" lol. I really love the chrome kidneys with the shadow lining. Smashing job on that interior, so nasty before hand! Think of dying it black? I think that would flow very well with the shadow lining.~ Puch Cafe. ~ Do business? feedback ~ Check out my leather company ~

No problem man, but this is what I was talking about and I can see what you were talking about. The shape does not allow it to fit in the allowed space well.
I am sure it sounds amazing, but did you give it some thought on the finished fitment? I just think a different muffler that closes the gap and sits flush in the opening would really finish off it well. IMO the tip fitment is what matters for everyone to see.
What is everyone going to think when you give them your rear end after a head scratching pass? ;)
Not bashing at all, the work is well done and proof is the picture of it sitting together in the pictures above. I just think it does not do any justice to the work involved with the car and the end result of the fit and finish of all the little things.
Just my .2 cents, carry on :)~ Puch Cafe. ~ Do business? feedback ~ Check out my leather company ~

I think this picture is more flattering of the fitment:
This one shows how it looks at ground level - and very few people will actually be seeing it live from that angle:
And here's one I just went outside and took:

I noticed the straight shot under the subframe, I am not trying to rip on any of the work done. You had a time frame to upkeep as well, no? Will not bring it up anymore as I do not want to upset your enjoyment. You're happy and that is all that matters.
I LOVE the car, I love the clean nature and attention to detail. Congrats on the swap and the new toy :)~ Puch Cafe. ~ Do business? feedback ~ Check out my leather company ~

The old girl looks fantastic. I had no clue how this would turn out, OEM+ or not a waffleswaffleswaffleswafflesing single waffleswaffleswaffleswaffles waffleswaffleswaffleswafflesing waffleswaffleswaffleswaffles was given... I'd say that she's a nice mixture of both. A+++ on the build and excellent work done by every hand involved. The exhaust in person is a sight to behold. And RobertK knows his shit.
Can't wait for the brodeo!
Btw. This censorship is rediculous/amazing.
