Default Austin, Tx residents.... enter please

Ok, so I just moved here (Austin, Tx) and I need to know where I can get cats welded in with a little exhaust rework. Anybody know where I can go. I live near Davis and Mopac if there is a place close by.
Thanks,
-Nick

Donny at Meinieke on Burnet Rd, just north of Anderson Lane across from McD's. He's done alot of work for me and many others through the years. Good guy!

Second that. You could also try B&B on South Lamar.

The Meinieke on Hwy 183 North in Northwest Austin also did a good job removing a cutout and welding in a piece of straight pipe for me a couple years ago. They are right about where Jollyville Rd and 183 meet.

I had B&B do a full exhaust system for me a few years ago and they did a pretty good job. I had Diamond Fabrication touch up a few small leaks in it, but B&B did pretty well considering it was a full system. I probably could have taken it back to them for the touch up work, but I had the exhaust off the car and was going to Diamond for other reasons so I just grabbed the exhaust and brought it with me.
