we only use 304 grade stainless now because people thought their exhausts were rusting through, and you should get a lifetime warrenty.

look at your bumper along the bottom u have THREE "holes" if u have 3 exzorsts in each "hole" oval shaped so it fits sung in ech gap
IMO i think it could look nice if done proper

The problem is that kind of degradation isn't covered in the "lifetime" guarantee......I'd prefer not to have to remove my entire exhaust every few months just to rub it back down to "stainless" steel again, it's never going to look as shiny as if you used decent-quality grade-304 in the first place. And as with ANY material, you're eventually going to rub enough to create a hole, and I bet that wouldn't be classed as normal wear/tear, so ALSO wouldn't be covered by the guarantee...

Specify that you want grade-304 stainless steel to be used throughout the system, including the welds......should be OK that way.
