Thanks
Shifty Powers! And the cop and I kinda determined it to be a water access lid for lack of better understanding as to what it really is. My neighbor had contacted my mom after hearing the Turdstang ROARING down the ****in street and after she told him what happened he had said that he too had hit that and ended up snagging something off his car that we don't remember what it was. And he drives a gay little Hyundai lol.
So it's not just me, it's not how I mounted the mufflers... It's the damned angle of the street and the height of this damned lid thing. Good news is in the police report I picked up today it says "Officer took photographs of both the damage, and access lid.... This officer also placed additional cones in the construction area and advised Caracci Jr. (me) that a damage to property report would be taken as the incident occurred on city property." So that is slightly reassuring that the report pretty much shows that the area was an unmarked hazard to begin with. We'll see what happens when my mom calls the asphalt company tomorrow... And for the record the cop had NO idea of the lowered suspension as I already had the car jacked up when he got there because I had no idea the damage from simply looking under it.
As for the mufflers, the only person on this site (off the top of my head) that knows how these specific mufflers fit under our cars would be
MustangChris He could tell you that there is no REALLY good way to mount these bastards. They aren't made to fit underneath these cars, but I made it work. There is literally no room for even a pinky in between the muffler and the body of the car. I have them mounted up as tight as they would go. Had NO problems at all once they were finished mounted, up until now..
