This is the rear bar of your back subframe , DO NOTcut anything off this bar , what you need is a center exit exhaust
The only way to get rid of this bar is to fitt a Beam axle (expencive way of raising your exhaust)

Beams sit slightly lower!!
Take the exhaust off and flatten the offendin area slightly with a hammer, only do it enough to clear tho else you'll reck you pipe...
Jus out of interest, what sort of exhaust is it, because I never come across that prob before, you sure its on rite?

ive managed to raise it up a bit, haven't touched the rear beam, realised it was structural, i cant batter the pipe in because the rear can is carbon fibre and it would just smash it into pieces, thats why i dont want it scraping on the floor. its as goot as it can get now anyway, until i lower the car!
