Its normal, its just the coating burning. Happens when you install any new exhaust part.

x's and h's do hang a tad lower than the stocker, but not drastically.

My bassani hangs pretty low compared to stock. Learn to drive slower and at an angle over speed bumps... comes with the territory.

enjoy.

Yea thats what I did too. Just raise it up with a jack to level then tighten everything up. Worked for me.
