Cant i just cut it or do i need to have pipes bent around it? Kinda hard to see from the pics, its the passenger side and it rubs and vibrates against the pipe just forward of the tips.

They do hang low because of the pan. Cant move the passenger side up without bending the pipes or doing something to the pan.

If thats a catback I would say you dont have it adjusted right. My Hooker did that and I beat the hell out of that part of the car onlt to realize that when i tweaked the system the tailpipe moved away from the car.
