Hey everyone...

I was hoping you could all help me find a good exhaust shop in the area...

I know I could just look some up in the phonebook, but I'd rather know what ones are actually worth going to and offer fair rates.

Let me know :devillook

Ben Richards Fabrication in Burlington. I called Harmony, the local BMW service shop, and they said that all the exhaust work for the cars they have is done by Ben Richards. Their rates are fair as well. I got quoted 200-300 for parts and labor for a magnaflow.

no complications or problems during the install. very quick and easy... but then the problem i was having with the old strut is the same problem in the new strut. so it was a pretty big waste of time.

and if I end up removing the resonator, it should sound similar to my buddies magnaflow setup...
