A muscle car just isn't right without some muscle and the sound to match it. The problem I am having is after I installed the axle back exhaust (Borla Stingers) the portion of the exhaust right above the flat support bar is vibrating against each other. There is probably only about a 1/4 inch of clearance between the exhaust pipe and the support bar. My question is what can I do to stop the vibration? I have tried repositioning the axle back exhaust but can't seem to gain anymore clearance. Is there some kind of anti-vibration device I can place between the pipe and the support bar? I put a couple of wood shims in between just to verify this was the issue, but that is obviously not a permanent fix. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Update: Was able to solve the problem using washers as spacers (many washers), but there is no more vibration.

Dobeman2000,
Congrats on your new Camaro & exhaust purchases! You mentioned you installed headers and sometimes that will slightly move/clock the mounting positions of downstream exhaust parts. Occasionally convertibles present extra challenges to installation that coupes doesn't.
Hopefully your washer solution helps solve the vibration permanently. But if it doesn't, please call our Borla Sales/Customer Service office at 805-986-8600. We warranty our products for 1,000,000 miles and are always glad to help. Thanks for your business & happy motoring!
