Guys with exhaust...where do you "tie it" if it hangs too low?

Anyone? Because my CT exhaust I think is a bit too low and too loose.

typeR and frank828 and nokio:
You guys have to understand...I'm a retard. With that said...I don't know how exactly you'd use a zip tie to tie it...where you'd loop the zip tie around...the chassy? And typeR...they just sell those two holed rubber hangers? Really???

*edit*: I read nokios again and I see...you just run the zip ties through the rubber holders and through the exhaust hook support. If they sell shorter rubber things at Autozone or something though typeR I'd rather do that...

I didn't install em myself eh? Seen www.acura-tl.org lately? I'm putting my headers on myself next week.

My email is Austin519@aol.com . Thanks bro.

nokio:
Check out the mechanic's trick I used on the upper strut tie bar...it makes it easier...

typeR:
Yeah I mean...I'm a big DIYer (a la www.acura-tl.org) but I still was curious...maybe I just don't remember what it looks like under there...it was my first mod...and that was soo long ago. Come to think of it...I think I did already hook in the second set of hooks man...so now what?
