Not really, it will fit over the rear beam, it won't rust that bad as the car does only a few miles.

Does it come out straight or is it at an angle?

Actually...thinking back the person who fitted it had to heat it up and bend it slightly to miss the rear beam.

Bare that in mind, depends if you want to pay someone to fit it or do it yourself?

I'm sure if you spent enough time fucking around with it you can make any exhaust not hit the rear beam, I spent ages with mine but its perfect now.

Not tried putting a bit of rubber around the rear beam?

i just modified mine myself, the only stainless part on mine is the back box itself, the rest i just hacked up my standard system as it costs me fuck all to make/replace when it rusts, and sounds exactly as i want it, spent hours makin mine sit exactly in the right place so it doesnt catch anywhere down the system and even if i scrape the bottom of the car over speedbumps it doesnt touch the exhaust at all

don't you just twist them slightly and it raises it up over the beam? I seem to remember doing that on mine. I didn't have mine super chav low though.

that only gives a small adjustment, and it makes the rest of the system sit differently, if you fit them properly you put them in one place and heat and bend it to suit, not twist to suit

Mine used to rattle on the beam, killed my handbrake cable lol,
Just undid the clamps and twisted the exhaust till it fitted with no rattling, and then adjusted the back box till it sat right,
