ripped off....

[93accord2dr]

I just went to Mida to get my exhaust fixed (pipe from resonator rusted off.) So I asked them how much it would be to get 2.5" mandrel bent tubing, and they said $800!! So I'm like fuck that, and just replace it with the stock size, but it still cost me $200. A fucking rip off, pissed me off so much. I should've just gotten a Cat back system on ebay.

and this is why bringing your car to a shop is a BAD thing

[93accord2dr]

well I seriously would've done it myself if I had the tools (jackstands, etc.)

[wed3k]

but u need a madrel pipe bender for exhaust but custom piping is a sucker.

If they were going to build you a full system with a muffler and cat, then I would say $800 is a fair price. My 2.5" full system cost me $400 just for the parts...good thing I didn't have to pay labour...that would've been a good $400-500 more.

Midas blows...they charged me 370 for a cat back when i first got the car (my mom made me go) and its already rusting off. If you haven't already replaced the exhaust...get other estimates...if not...make sure you have that guarantee...the material they use isn't all that great...

I put the garuntee in my glove box

And I should've looked around town to see what ther places were charging, but I couldn't live without my cb7 for any longer.

[sickoffthe206]

I paid 80 for my 2.25" with the bends and install!

[wed3k]

how much do u think for a cat welded on?

[k-mart]

i payed $30 for 2.5 catback intalled

local shops > midas

getting ripped off is the worst feeling, makes me sic to the stomach

[cp[mike]]

i paid $70 labor to get flanges cut and a universal cat (which i provided) welded in.

it was "budget muffler and brake" - the only place that had some time to get the car done that day.

i need a welder.

[ckyskater733]

i paid $150 or so for my catback exhuast with 2.5" piping and muffler. then $10 for tax

[h22sparkle]

I went to a bullshit shop down over at the stadium and got mine for $75 bucks was done in 20-25 minutes
