Either drop the muffler slightly, or cut out the bumper.

Thanks for the input guys.
It seems to be difficult to put chrome tips on the end. The tips at the muffler shops are all too long, and therefore they will stick out too much. Also, I was not aware of this issue that Jim brings up. Sadly, it looks like that I am going to have to forget about the dual chrome tips idea. A shame.
Does anyone know the correct part number for the 1990 300E? The one i got from the dealer is: 124 491 0400
But the existing one on my car is: 124 491 1501 3431 (these 4 numbers are written in smaller face).
I was wondering if the dealer gave me the wrong one even though I provided them with my VIN or did MB change the part number now?
Also, I thought these mufflers bolt onto the center one, but the muffler guy showed me that you have to cut off the rear from the center muffler, and bolt or weld the rear onto that point. I just thought there would be a place were it was bolted on, but it looks like a seamless piece right to the center muffler.
