Default Muffler fitment with Type R Lip??

Anyone here install the type r lip or bumper to rear on a ek hatch with a magnaflow or similar exhaust.. ?? And does anyone know if the lips cover up the exhaust cuttout on the rear bumper/? specifically just wondering if it will fit as i already had to trim my exhaust cuttout on my hatch due to adjustment from the addition of sway bar in rear.. the bracket was rubbing on the exhaust pipe.

So you had to drop the exhaust down some in the rear? if so this would create an issue for me due to the added sway bar in rear..

Mill: the type R hatch lip is different than yours.

I know that i need to get a rear lip because my twin loop hangs a little low. I dont know if its because the twin loop is a mugen replica and its meant to go with a mugen lip kit or what, but it hangs a little too low for my liking right now. It doesnt look TOO bad, it looks fine from the sides, just when your behind me you can see a little too much of the muffler itself. I would rather just have the tip being shown and a little of the bottom of the muffler thats it.

sway bar runs just a bit higher than the control arm which was issues i had before installing the exhaust.. had to adust it to get it right in the middle of the opening so when i accelerate and turn it doesnt rub ..
