Using your DC Sports exhaust system is straightforward. Just bolt it directly to your OEM equipment as it's designed to fit without any modifications. When driving, you don't have to worry about ground clearance thanks to its smart design. As for maintenance, regularly check the exhaust for any signs of damage or loose connections. If you notice any issues, get them fixed promptly. Keep the exhaust clean to maintain its look and performance. You can use a mild stainless - steel cleaner for the brushed finish and the exhaust tip. Also, make sure to follow local laws regarding exhaust noise levels.
