Exhaust Install

I am getting Exhaust sometime in the next week and its used so I need to know what kind of installation materials I will need Its a Borla catback with a borla ORY
I know the band clams that he took off are really rusty so I will need new ones should I just check around at exhaust shops I'm gonna do the install myself obviously unless a shop around here will charge me less than getting all the materials. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks Big Jimbo

im gonna go to a few shops see how much they charge me to put it all on then see how much the parts are. I dont really have access to a lift so I would be doing it on jackstands and jacks might not be the best way to install it.

Installing the exhaust shouldn't be that bad. Most of us do ours on jackstands. You save some money and even if the money isn't a big deal, you still get a certain sense of satisfaction doing it yourself.
