I know a place in Antwerp, OH, that could do it....just had mine done there recently. They're just East of Ft. Wayne, IN. If that's not too far for you to travel, just pm me for the address & contact info.

You should be ale to take it a muffler shop, or any auto mechanic for the most part.

Mine was done by a race car chassis shop....the job done looks awesome, and cost me $68.75 to have done.

Just make sure the car is on all 4 wheels (ie a drive on lift or jack stands placed as close to the wheels as possible) when they are welded.
