Default Type-R Rear Lip

Ok I've got a problem. I got myself I set of Type-R front & rear lips for my 2000 EX, I had a body shop paint & put them on, here's my problem, the rear lip doesn't clear my Tanabe Racing Medallion exhaust, so what should I do? Should I have him cut out a hole for the exhaust or what? Thanks for your help.

I had a muffler shop heat up and slightly pull my exhaust down... I had to do this because I upgraded to a 99 rear bumper, the muffler was touching the bumper and i didn't want any heat damage on it... they were able to pull it down nearly an inch and a half....

help that helps

try to lower the hangers first. your last choice should be to cut the lip.

Just out of curiosity, where did you get the lip? How much did it cost? How much did the painting cost? What about the installation?
