I wouldnt worry much about headers scraping as i would exhaust scraping. Go with pacesetters, they tuck up quite nicely.

Here is a pic after I installed Pacesetters on my car, as you can see by the wd40 can there is several inches of clearance, this is with stock springs.

Hmm. I dont drive like a nut, and I never scrape anything as the car is now. But Im still a little apprehensive about it. Can anyone with a lowered car jump in?

I'm using hooker LT's. I wasnt implying anyone elses would scrape, I was just saying mine does although I'm starting to thinks my shocks and springs are worn.
