I recently got my new car and looking underneath, the ehaust pipes are hanging pretty low (I'm afraid of speed bumbs). My question to you is this. Should I go aftermarket exhaust kit or just go back to original. The engine has around 221,000 miles on it and money is tight on my end. any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

i don't know if the car is lowered or not, but mine sits like 3" off the ground and i have no problems with it as in touching the speed bumps

If you're afraid of the speed bumps, just go over them sideways, just don't forget to turn into the bump, just before you go over it. Think like parking on a hill and turning the wheel to the curb, same idea. The rim/tire will carry that lowest part over the bump without touching it. Also it's great because part of the maneuver is that you can really p*ss off the people behind you that are trying to figure out what the h*ll you're doing!! BTW, sideways does work. My prior car was like 2-2 1/2 inches off the ground from the body frame and I got stuck, quite literally, on speed bumps if I didn't go sideways. :yes:
