The bend in the centre section on my dt sits very low, probably no more than 4 inches off the ground, making it almost impossible to go over soeed bumps without scraping it, the car has been lowered 30mm on the front but nothing on the back, any one had the same problem and know the best way to fix it?
Cheers!

Slacken of the clamp on the backbox/downpipe rotate the centre section so it's closer to the body and re clamp

Heavy duty zip ties on the rubber mounts to lessen movement/vibration also help.
