roush side exhaust, owners experience?

Any comments or experience on ground clearance of roush side exhaust.
Friend heard from 1 owner that had too low, many issues with hitting ground & bumps. Not sure if that car was lowered.
We're thinking of roush stage 3 kit with side exhaust on our 2000 & 2003 v6's

X3 on good looks but I can't comment for sure on clearance. If you aren't lowered I would think it should be ok.

I imagine that would be the case. Get ready to dust the sides of the car everytime you drive it. lol

My buddy has a side pipe with a plastic ground effect around the side exhaust on his mustang and had the body shop fix it three times in one year of ownership. He is changing it this spring. Also they are right about the dust always blowing up his car is always dusty. Not worth the hassles for the side pipes.
