Exhaust issues

[Whitetac]

I recently purchased a ktec recessed exhaust for my cup as the prospeed backbox that the previous owner had fitted hung down too low and was showing underneath the exhaust tip (which drove me crazy)

However, as the rear bumper has already been cut(to the old system) the new ktec backbox sits about 2 inches too far to the left and won't fit the cut in the bumper properly.

What are my options around this? I had thought at first about getting the ktec system bent/rewelded so that it sits flush but I think the spare wheel bit blocks in by an inch or so? I'd happily cut into that if it means my exhaust will look the way I want it to?!
Other than that all I can think of is cutting a hole in my bumper where the exhaust sits now and then get a bodyshop to fill in the old one? Any other suggestions? What do you think will be cheapest? I would upload pics but I only have an iPhone and no pc :/

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Firstly, you can upload pics to photobucket directly from your Iphone, using the Photobucket app.

Secondly..... The bumper, you're going to have trouble to be honest mate, filling it will be virtually impossible. Getting the K-tec rewelded is an option but it won't be cheap I shouldn't think. You're best option is probably to buy a second hand rear bumper.

EDIT: just noticed you're in West Sussex, where abouts?

How much do u think I could pick a bumper up for? 2nd painted would be preferable! I live in worthing but gf lives in brighton so over there a fair bit!

My friends dad is a welder so could probably get welding done abit cheaper but still got the issue of the spare wheel clearance!

rear exhaust mount shagged => tail pipe sitting too low!

It wasn't the fact the exhaust was sagging, it was that the backbox was clearly visible beneath the exhaust tip and just looked tacky imo! Will get clearer pics later
