I'm running a spohn tunnel brace. Its a damn tight fit, I am running a piece of heater hose on top of it because it touches it in one place, but I don't notice any excessive vibrations/noise/banging while driving the car.

I did a pacesetter LT and TSP catted y-pipe install this summer and oveall I'm happy with the ground clearance. I'm using band clamps, as suggested earlier. I'm stock ride height and can honestly say I've never scrapped the y-pipe once. I will disclaim that this isn't my daily driver so maybe it doesn't see speed bumps and pot holes all that often. I'll try to get pictures of my setup. However, I would say it is noticably lower on the drivers side when you get under the car.

Here's pictures from my setup. Again as mentioned above, I would switch out the exhaust clamps you have now to band clamps. Your exhaust clamp looks like its a .5-1 inch even lower than the exhaust pipe. Also as a suggestion, if you are able to tuck up the pipe a little higher I would wrap the fuel lines. Car is at stock ride height.
