XS header solution to touching floorboard with pictures

I took it out and cut off ~2" of it. I took a 3" internal diameter connector and cut a V in it, pinched it together and welded it back (probably 20-25 degree bend). Then I took a 40 degree mandrel bend, cut it in the middle of the bend, rotated it 160 degrees and welded it back together. These combined take it away from the floorboard and over the little hump that our cars have.
I can take pictures if anyone needs them.
Other than that, I love the headers.

~2" cut off takes it away from the floorboard, but leaves enough to get the slip fit over it.
I'll post a couple more once it's on the car.
