    Haha yeah they put stickers all over now. Used to put one or two, but sometimes stuff is dusty/oily and they would fall off, thus delaying shipping. Now they put them everywhere so nothing gets lost! :laugh:

    ^^^ that would be nice to have so i could take it to the exhaust shop and just point to it and say "i want mine to look like this" instead of trying to explain it to them and why and all the other crap that goes with it.

    It's not mine, just found a pic of it for you. $500!?!?!?! WTF???:eek:

    Standard welding prices at a muffler shop should be around $60 an hour. Since it doesn't take more then a couple cuts from a sawzall and a few bends/welds in a standard exhaust tube I'm guessing $125-$200?? Someone on this thread will know from experience..

    After mocking up different ideas, decided to move the OEM y-pipe back some, so that everything after the y-pipe still has some independent play in case of movement
