T1R V2 Clearance Problem

So i got a T1R V2 muffler and i also have the Progress RSB. I've notice when i drive the exhaust hits the bar and a part of the exhaust hits it. I want to know if anyone else has this set up and possibly have the same issue or is it just me.

I'm running the same setup, but I never had that issue before, beside that the can isn't flatblack, but I fixed that already

I have the same setup but do not have this issue.

Did you lower the car though?

There should be a lot of clearance from the axle pipe to the RSB unless your car is super low then that could possibly be an issue.

I will suggest you to try wait4thefit's idea and that should work.
