I do like the design of the Apexi WS exhaust, the only concern I have is the mid section flange hanging too low. I know alot of later model civic owners complain about the poor engineering of the piping; with some owners complaing about scraping with only lowering the car 1.5 inches.

Does anyone actually have an Apexi WS on there 5th gen? Do you experience these same problems?

I have one, no complaints! The only thing I ever hit is the muffler or the tip...

In this pic you can see the rear section flange, its not too low.

I have almost a 4 inch drop and the apexi WS exhuast. I scraped a couple times the first night I had it and have only scraped a couple times since. Usually it's on a speed bump or something that I know is coming but unavoidable. It's been like 4 months now and can't really say it's that bad.

IMO the canister is too big and you need a rear lip to make it look best. It would still be my choice for a quiet exhuast though and at least it doesn't look like a fart can.

my drop is 1.5"...

Yeah, the muffler is big, but its not so noticeable standing behind the car... but thats one of the reasons I got it... I dont like the coffee can looking mufflers.

Hey Cryogen... where do you find those pics of Cherie??
