      that metal piece is a cover near the o2 sensor I believe so it shouldnt matter, and that "flex-pipe" shouldnt matter much either, I highly doubt the city will pay for anything, especially if the car is lowered or if you were speeding. I'd say since you have the megan muffler and just got your exhaust done, just go all the way, headers back and make sure to put a resonator in

      The Flex pip is WAY over priced, your best bet.. as far as on a budget goes, is to have that section replaced with a piece of pipe...

      its not the metal O2 cover that is damaged. the pipe itself is dented inward, but im not sure if that is so bad. and as for the flex pipe if i just get another pipe isnt that bad cuz i thought that those were necesarry so the exhaust pipes dont twist and whatnot. maybe im confused

      Try to find a car with an OEM flex pipe the size you need (I used one from a Saturn). A flex pipe isnt something that is a "must have" but rather its something that is "better to have" so that the exhaust doesnt move and jerk with the engine

      Did you just get a Cat Back Done? now you can get headers and finish the pipes........

      i was doing 40. it was an alley detour and i had no traffic in front of me. so its not only the city's fault; i am half at blame. im just happy i didnt do any suspension mods yet.

      i scraped the plastic, but its not too bad, just some minor cosmetics. and i never really look under my bumper for prettyness.

      i dont have pics of the street its too dark at the moment. but i will search for it if possible.

      and no i didnt get the cat back. it was just a simple pipe replacement this far. the cat back is to get done in the near future.
