Funny how I see all the Borla comments after I send my money.  Oh well, I have enough confidence in the muffler shop, he'll figure something out.

Dont worry tom, its not too bad... Easy fix. Im almost sure new rubber for the hangers will fix the problem, and lift my exhaust up closer to the outlets where its supposed to be

Got a quote from a local muffler shop I trust, they want 150!
I was shocked both times, I figured it would be max 70 bucks! I guess ill head over to the southside of Ypsilanti, hopefully it wont cost more than 50 bucks and I wont get robbed!
thats insane! drop the gas tank?? 
Yeah, the guy was an old timer. He was worried about fumes, and wouldnt believe me when I told him fumes wouldnt escape

Any dates as to when the first few of us that paid in full will get ours? I recall you saying that you had some extras sitting at your place. I would just like to get these things installed before spring break is over

Ok, got mine and already got them painted. Took them to a smaller exhaust shop with $60 in my pocket and he said he needed at least $100. He also said I should get some welding primer because as soon as these are welded on it will start rusting under them and then the welds would rust off and so on. I can only think of places that would probably charge too much now, any ideas?
