Exhaust Hangers?

Has anyone seen a replacement for the exhaust hangers on these cars? I'm looking for one that:

A. Is quite a bit stiffer than stock to keep the pipe from moving around so much.
B. Drops the exhaust maybe 1/2" or so to give me more clearance around the trailer hitch I put on this car.

I've seen that Cobb makes a kit for the Focus ST, wonder if it happens to fit the Fiesta as well.... Or if there's someone who sells a wide variety of exhaust hangers?

Heres a simple mod to stiffen your exhaust system, won't help you lower it but it will stop sagging. The ties are surprisingly strong.

That's pretty clever
Not my idea I will point out. I picked it up from MRT Performance. I run a 3 inch MRT system on a WRX I owned. The guy who run MRT, the Australian company was quite a successful rally driver. Their idea to stop breakage on rally cars.

Still, good/cheap idea

Its a clever idea. When I first saw it on my Subaru's exhaust system I thought "well that's not going to last", 8 years latter it was still running on the original ties. lol.

Haha I'll be honest, I was thinking "those will probably snap off within 3 months"

Worst thing to plastic Wire/Zip ties is the UV sunlight over time makes them brittle and they break easier on a exhaust hanger you better not be seeing DIRECT sunlight often if at all :) then just watch for heat so they don't melt and you be golden.. I personally used this tip from Sered.. Works very well...

I might add that I don't suffer the weather conditions you guys do in NA do, no freezing winters, snow and salt sprayed roads. I also wash the underneath my vehicles regularly.

Picked up a set of the ones I posted. Kinda pricey, but they're adjustable and stiffer, so should suit my needs.
