Does anyone have any experience with the 5zigen exhaust? I got one recently and was surprised to find out that the fit wasn't clean like I was hoping for. The tip fit too high into the bumper area and caused some slight scorching to the plastic. Has anyone else had this problem or is this a isolated incident :?:

That means the exhaust is for the japan version xB and I can fix that for you. It is very easy for me to fix and bBted has one, scionara has one, MIKEY has one, and they look good when they are installed perfectly! :D PM me if you want me to modify it to fit correctly.

Stylis, Thanks for the offer to fix the problem, but I had a muffler shop in Hayward extend the rear hanger already. I didn't want the plastic to get too burnt. This lets me know that it's not just a isolated incident, but a issue with the fit. As you said, it's probably because it was originaly designed for the bB. This is a issue that I feel 5Zigen should address for the U.S. market, that shouldn't be too much trouble for them. B.t.w I saw the pictures of your exhaust and must say that it came out quite nice. Maybe I'll see you bumpin around the streets of Norcal.
