side exit exhaust

i bought the svo/borla side exit kit, and i went to install just the cat-back without the the svo skirts. when i put it on the tips are touching my stock side skirts. is this goin to be a problem? i was thinking of putting some like muffler tape or something on the bottom of the skirt above the exhaust tips. any advice?

Are you going to use the stock skirts or the SVO skirts? I would get a shop to properly adjust it. It shouldnt be touching anything.
 
i am going to just keep the stock skirts on. i took the rubber hanger that was used on the back near the tailpipes, and stuck that on there, because it is longer then the one that came with the side exit, but that was tooo big and the tips hung down too low. how close do you think i can get it to the skirts and still be safe? i really like how it looks when it is touching the skirts, so i want it as tight as possible.

Could you [Or someone else] chime in and tell me where you got that kit and about how much it was? I'm getting my car painted soon and would love to have side exhaust... Yet, I kinda like my rear too.. Anyway, Link?

Get the spintech kit. You'll love the sound more then borla IMO. Search around, pics are around here somewhere.
 
i got some pics of it, sorry for the poor quality of them.

Looks awesome! That setup looks a lot cleaner without the bulky SVO scoops.
I have to disagree. Heres a couple pics of my car. the first is when i hit something on the freeway and it ripped my sidekisrt off. Granted, its not the same as having the stock side skirt, but i think it looks much cleaner w/ the svo side skirts.
