does anyone know of a tweak to fit jl/franspeed exhausts to help them clear panels if they are close?

(move the back of the expansion section slightly away from the panel)?

cheers

Fit the end can and just pull it away from panel basically bend the stinger, it worked for me ;) although you shouldnt have to do when spending £300ish on a exhaust that you need to modify to fit.

Wot I've done before is fit spacer washers or two large rear bushes from a JL on the front bracket and a longer rubber mount on the rear bracket, you'll have to elongate the slots on the front bracket. Try and get it to fit without having to use any force when it's bolted up, otherwise it can cause fractures.
