Well i didn't have to pay to have mine chopped off, they just rusted and fell off on their own lol. I noticed that the exhaust was getting louder under the cabin, so i crawled under there and started wiggling stuff around and the clamps fell off in my hand. I drove around like that for a couple days cause it sounded cool, then ordered the parts and had them replaced. I can't remember how much the flexpipes were but the clamps were like $45 ea... I got them from the dealer though so I'm pretty sure I got ripped off.

apart from the flex pipes, none of that stuff is terribly expensive, the $$ comes from paying some guy to weld the crap on there

I just got such a shitty job done when i got my magnaflow axleback done that i am sitting in my house with a knot in my stomach thinking about how good of a job this guy is going to do if he does my exhaust. My parents demanded that i take MY car that I PAYED for to their local guy because its under my fathers name still and he finds reason not to believe that i can take care of stuff myself.

lol things were so much better when i could do a valve cover job at school and not have to worrie about my parents buggin the crap outta me.

I can use universal flex pipes correct?

Yeah I know what you mean, I got f*cked over more than once by my mom's mechanic when i was home from school, but "Don't worry, he's the best in town."....No, ma, he isn't. You're just too stubborn to let anyone tell you otherwise!
