I'm not sure because of the design you might just have to try it out and hope for the best. Honestly I think you should ditch that exhaust. It's like a hybrid, it's not a normal single and it's not a dual tip nor a true dual...such an odd design.

I will have to get some pics. Had to cut a bit from the front to clear a pipe, then had a body shop use a router (sp?) to cut a bit of the carbon where the tips are. The carbon that goes under the tip was cut in that case. I didnt have a fraying issue when I cut it. I used a dremil at high speed and it kind melted where you cut if that makes sense.

Most exhausts will require the diffuser to be modified.

Im not worried about moding the back side of the diffuser im just not sure if it has enough clearance from the bottom of the bumper to the top of the diffuser? If you see what i mean? My exhaust as it has twin cans sits quite low.

I kinda understand what you're saying. Unfortunately, there isn't much of a way to find out unless someone with that particular exhaust has already tried installing one before.
