Default Just installed GT take off

Like it says, I just installed my GT M/T take off in about 40 mins. It wasn't too bad to get on and I Love the way it looks. Sounds pretty good too, I haven't really gotten on it yet so I am not sure how it reallyyyy sounds but just around the neighborhood, it sounded pretty nice.

One question though....I notice the tip actually rest against the bumper.....is that normal and will that cause any problems???

It can cause the bumper to melt. You should lower it a TINY bit.

Good point, I will have to do that tomorrow. I'm not sure if there is a way to get it to lower much though but I will take a look at it again.

It can get annoying trying to adjust it, and more than likely it will require bending the tail pipe. I took it to the dealership and they fixed the problem for free.

You can just throw something between the hanger and the car, if that makes since! When I put mine on I still had the V6 bumper which I cut out and the one side was touching which it did end up melting it so I brought it back to the place who installed mine and they just through something between which moved it down a 1/4 inch or so and then when I put the GT bumper on I took it right out and it fits perfectly!![/align]But deff do it now before it melts ur bumper!!![/align]
