i scored the muffler for free.. and picked up another OEM slip on, and hacked the muff off, and welded my can to it. i found the straping at home depot. its used to secure water heaters to the wall... lol

whatcha think?

 

sexy sexy! And can't beat a free pipe...well i guess not free but close enough! Looks good...how does it sound? if its half as good as the bad boy looks all the more better....did you look into maybe a rubber strap or something for the strap, just so it dosn't scratch it up too terriably bad. Good job man

 

sounds awesome!

and the strap is seriously in place. it doesn't budge! now if i were interested in selling it, or ever wanting to take it off.. i would consider adding ruber under the strap, but its really sturdy, and i can't see it doing any more than just scuffing it alittle, rather than rubbing a hole through it.

so.. its gunna stay this way. if anything i might have the lower pipe painted with some high temp flat black paint. if i do that, i'll prolly paint the strap black also. all stealth mode.

 

Depending on what kind of environment you live in , you might want to throw a quick coat of paint on that strap to stop corrosion. Most are made with plain steel.

 

its galvinized steel.. and i live in socal. so we don't get much rain, and for the most part humidity is second to none.
