Not until it's more of a weekend/show car. I'd want to take better care of my stainless when I get it. This will be the 4th and last year I dd my car(summer) and my aluminized piping is just now getting rust spots... I just sanded them off when I had it on the lift about a week ago. If you have the money and are concerned about looks than go with stainless.

I willl be running all steinless exhaust when my car is done. Too bad all the local shops dont weld steinless in my case

Except for my stock iron manifolds, and the 409 stainless Magnaflow catcons, EVERYTHING else is 304 stainless.

This car sees A LOT of; rain, salt, snow, sleet, etc. as it is the exception on here being a year 'round, ALL condition, daily driver (hence the username), so I absolutely NEED the stainless exhaust (unlike the nice summer weekend garage queens).

Then go for it! It will be worth every penny! I jus dont know how that steinless is gonna do with that salt. Wouldnt the steinless rust/corrode?

NOPE! THAT'S the WHOLE point of using austenitic 304 (or the better 321, etc.) stainless in your exhaust system (besides that it polishes up real nice for the blingy-bling crowd), it just does NOT rust, or corrode like aluminized, and 409 stainless eventually will.

I decided years ago when I got the hawk that I would save up the money and put stainless on. I didn't do it for the looks. I could care less what someone thinks of my under side.I did it because it was a DD and I had no plans of worrying about rust and doing it all over again every so many years. All stainless, and now it's kept away from the bad weather.
