It would be so much less work if you just bought pre bent piping and cut it to fit instead of all of the pie cuts lol

Lookin good.

I would suggest running the tail pipe another foot or so to the oem tail pipe location. You'll thank me later.....it will drone like a **** other wise.

Been there done that with my rear mount.
