JDM bumper diffuser got squeezed
My evo 9 got IDM bumper and diffuser w/ Invidia N1 exhaust. I dont know if this problem is common for this combo or what, but the exhaust tip's location is a little bit off to the left and my diffuser just got squeezed up badly by it. Totally deformed. The N1 exhaust is installed by the car's previous owner who seems to not care about this look but I just cant take it. Had somebody try to pull the exhaust pipe to the right, but it will hit the fuel tank. So could anyone tell me if this is a common problem for the Invidia N1 w/ JDM rear bumper or it is caused by installation error? THANKS....

just take that system off and buy an ebay turbo back. with the money made from selling your N1 you'll have plenty left over to buy a magnaflow muffler and have it custom welded in place of the N1. you'll probably have some money left over so buy yourself a nice dinner....
