Default greddy exhaust rubbing making noise

I have a 2000 civic ex and have a greddy on there from previous owner. The problem is the exhaust is rubbing again my rr brake line (the hard line) and other parts of the chasiss. I checked all mounts and rubber isolator and they are in good shape. Anyone else have this problem with their greddy?

I have not had the problem. But, a possible solution might be to spend 5-10 bucks on universal exhaust hangers (the kind with 4-5 holes) so that you can adjust where it sits to try and avoid further rubbing

Got a pic?

Mine rattles somewhere in the middle.
Sometimes when I idle, and most of the time when I reverse
It's embarrassing and annoying

did you read my post?? it could be that piece of metal in the middle that shields the exhust from the bottom of the car, i dont no wall all a sudden it started rubbing on mine, but it could be it..its only flimsy metal, just get someone to shake your exhust by the muffler and look underneather

I had a similar prob with my last car. My mechanic heated the pipe with a blowtorch while another guy bent it with a pry bar. The car felt faster without the grinding for some reason.[8D]
