Hi,
Im not saying if this is a good shop or not, im just posting some shots of my exhaust 4 months after it was done after noticing a change in exhaust note.
All looked well

I noticed some carbon around this joint.... i wonder if they used a ner gasket or used the old one?

Then, i foudnd more carbon around the joint of the muffler

So i stuck a camera between the muffler and chassis (my head dont fit) and i snapped this... is that a solid piece of welding rod?

Hmmm... didnt last very long

bwahahahahaha **** those welds are fkn crap man I did better welds as a 1st year apprentice, come to think of it I did better welds in my first 2 weeks man. Tell them to get that shit fixed man and good, actually tell them ur not happy with their quality of work and that u wanna take it to another shop and tell them to pay for the work at the other place.

hey those welds are better than what i can do
lol
the reason they look like that is probably because they didnt angle grind it to make it look better.

Bird Shit styled MIG welding is ok but the way he did it looks like the bird is constipating badly...
Hope you get back here and report what actually happened.
Curious to hear what excuse they're gonna come up with.
