I attempted to have my ark exhaust installed today at a very reputable shop and not only did the outlets not match up, but the resonators are touching the underbody brace. I called ark and was told I need to add washers in between the brace, about a half inch, to provide clearance. Not happy about this type of resolution, don't feel disturbing the structural integrity of the car is a safe or smart option.
That "issue" is on every Z... Its not even a problem with the product if you got the grip 2. You really just need a better installer. I went to a shop who never even had a Z in and they knew exactly what to do. If you do not bolt it up in the correct order then you will have that issue dont be so quick to blame products. Do a little research and you find that there are how-to's for that exhaust.
