Any suggestions on a fix for this there is a small hole and it may not pass state inspection dealer wants $300 just for the part. Also bolts are rusted bad. Are the bolts welded onto the header or are they replaceable? Any help is much appreciated. On another topic any suggestions on struts I see there are many options out there I would like something as an upgrade not really iterested in adjustable or racing just something of an improvement over stock and is a basic bolt on. Also how do local garages feel about doing this kind of work.

The FedEx package was waiting on the doorstep as the email said it would the flex pipe looks good. This should get me through the inspections till I can trick out the exhaust as you did.
