Bought a lowered honda with aftermarket exhaust. Help
Hello im new here and ive been searching on the internet for a few hours on how to solve my problem. If this is the wrong thread I apologize.
I have a 2000 honda civic ex that is lowered (no idea how low) and a aftermarket exhaust system installed.
I understand its normal for a lowered car to scrape, but this is ridiculous, its like an adventure everytime you drive, its a habit for me to turn around when i see a mountain of a speed bump, hell even the little ones make me nervous.
Could i just replace my headers with a stock and keep the rest aftermarket or what.. exhaust itself seems pretty big.. i would leave it alone but the exhaust leak is horrible and sounds bad
Ill post pictures later.

post pics of the suspension (potentially it cold be lifted higher if there is an adjustable height system without changing any parts for new ones)
if you have them, it should have some collars in the shock bodies.
see below example (yours might differ):
