I had the same issue this summer. I got in a hurry and instead of contacting Borla made my own out of either 16 or 18 gauge in the garage one night - you can use the gasket as a template.

Just contact borla. I did just 2 weeks ago cause the car I bought did not come with them and it was only $60 for all 4 plates and I had them in 2 days. I emailed them.
