Default Custom exhaust..

Alright. So I'm working on a custom exhaust system for my Monte.. And I was thinking some Flowmaster 40 series, and some double-walled tips, all welded. Anyone have any input on that?

Use the THrush welded, they are same as flowmaster 40 's and they are 30 buck apiece.
I also welded my tips back on since its 2 in in and 2 1/4 out

Do you know exactly which ones you're getting yet? I've got the pair from my MF kit that i replaced with something else. Haven't actively marketed them lately, but I've been trying to sell them for a while now.

If you've got pics of them, send them to me in a PM, and I'll see if I like them. Otherwise, I just ordered two Thrush mufflers from Jegs, and they should be here sometime monday.

Well. This is a huge pain in the ***. The dealership installed a front bumper license plate holder, and drilled IN to the cars bumper WITHOUT my permission! It wasn't on the car when I test drove it, it wasn't on the car when I was filling out paper work! So I had them remove it, and now they're giving me crap about filling it in. So at the moment, I'm stuck with three ******* holes in the front bumper of a BRAND NEW CAR.

Where'd you have it done? I'm trying to find someone local to do it cheap, but it's not working out so well.. I'm in the Kansas\Missouri area.
