Melting rear bumper

[spacca]

I've got a v70r backbox on the t5 and had to put a rear exhaust hanger on as it was missing when MOT,d.
It seems to be too high now and is melting the bumper.
Is there an R exhaust hanger or are they all the same.
Pics to follow tomorrow I hope if it's not raining.

I have a V70R exhaust on mine and I had to cut a fair bit of bumper away.
A pair of tin-snips works well.

Mark the cut out with a dremel first, or better still....use the Dremel!!

I tried using a dremel on mine - bloody nightmare. Bit's of molten plastic everywhere lol. Got quite stingy so I broke out the 4 1/2" angle grinder :D

It's not hard to get a half decent cut with snips, then clean it up with sandpaper.

yep I tried to use a dremel on a plastic headlight to see why it was loose inside and it was a nightmare- melted and fought me all the way even at slow rpm.

stainless welding wire heated up untill its cherry red works a treat.

There's loads of different style rubber hangers available...
pop to your local tyre place or somewhat....or have you tried bending the hanger rods
