I have a 67 fastback and when I tried to install the Eleanor tips they would hit the under body of the car and would not fit into the side skirts. Can someone tell me how to correct this or do I just need to lower the side skirts? Thanks.

If you are wanting to make the tips functional and run the exhaust to them they are designed to pass THROUGH the torque box. You have to cut a huge hole in the box for the pipe to pass through. I've seen a few people try to use oval tubing and go under the torque box/frame rail, but it just fits poorly and looks bad.
I would contact the company that you bought the kit from and see if they have measurements for the holes because the pipes do pass through at an angle. You don't drill straight through if I remember right (photographed a Unique Performnace kit being installed about two years ago).
