Default Lowered Fox + full exhaust; will it work?

I bought my wife's 93 LX LE that came with H&R springs (gives car a two inch drop all the way around), and Flowmaster dumps. I can't get in touch with the old owner tofind outif he cut the tail pipes off because of the two inch drop messing with the tail pipes. Anyone know if the tail pipes will still work with this amount of drop? I want to install an SLP LM 1 on it, but don't want to order then have to send back because they wont fit with the drop. Thanks for your help in advance.

Hey not sure how much of a drop this is because I bought it like this, and I know its a GT, but I have a full exhaust and don't have tailpipe issues at all. The only thing that scrapes is the midpipes. Hope this helps.

I have a full exhaust on my 92 LX. I have to be careful going over speed bumps but it can be done.

My main concern is not so much ground to pipe clearance, rather the clearance between axle/pipe/body. The exhaust should hang down no farther than the dumps already on there, so it is the matter of clearancewith the tailpipe as it goes over the axle. Thanks again for your help.
