Default Exhaust broke in Half!!!!

Well my exhaust broke in half right before the pipe splits into the two mufflers. Sucks!! I may get it welded back on (if it can be) or I just may get another new exhaust. And I may lean back to the stock exhaust. I will put up some pictures later on today. But on the good side...... my car has a louder sound when I rev up since it is just a straight pipe. Good thing I passed inspection last month. Well pics coming soon.

Here are some pics. On a side note I just started painting my car's trim on the front bumper. I hope to have painted all the trim when I am finally done.

F that, you can weld that thing back on. To be honest, the original welding job looks kind of sketchy.

Don't know why you went with the dual pipes though.

Yeah i thought the weld job looked sketchy too. O and I didnt choose the exhaust. It was already on the car when I got it. But yeah I would rather have just one pipe and for right now I like riding around with no muffler and just a straight pipe. Loud and fun.
