Exclamation Exhaust noise

I got a 2.5 inch redback system fitted to my car and pretty much from the start its been making a noise, pretty much like its rubbing against somewhere. Its not tinny or anything, its like a deep rubbing sound and usually happens at low revs, when I give it to it a little or go over a speedbumps etc.

I have taken it back to the exhaust shop that fitted it twice and they have played around with it. Initially i think it was the twin tips touching the bumper, but I think there is something else to it, I think it moves out of position. The guy told me to bring it back again if it persists and he said he will weld it in position.

Has anybody experienced this problem? I think I will go solve it first thing tomorrow so any suggestion I can offer to them will be helpful!

Just have a look if you can and see where it's rubbing. Make sure it's on the rubbers and hangers correctly.

i took it to the exhaust shop this morning and we went for a drive together and went over speedbumps etc.... gues what, didnt make the sound, which is a good thing but i still have a feeling it will re-occur. Nevertheless, he always says bring it back if it persists but I guess some things you gotta live with, this is just one of em.
