Be careful it's not too close. Mine sit about 0.3 - 0.4cm from the bumper (as measured with a caliper, one is a little lower than the other), and over time they've very slightly melted/scorched the underside surface of the bumper in a tiny spot. You can't see it from the rear so I could care less, just FYI. The only reason mine are so close is because I had some tip clearance problems due to (we believe) the output location of the Stillen short-tube headers that are currently on the car. I used washers to space off the rear hanger bolts to give even that much clearance.

I just measured the two and the passenger side sits a 1/4 inch lower from tip to bumper. Here is a pic... i just feel like if i shim the driver side it looks like it sits too far from the bumper... maybe im just being picky...

Honestly from the pic the clearance and side-to-side difference looks pretty normal to me. Maybe if it were up closer or if I could move side to side and stare at the angles in realtime, I'd notice, but I donno.
