Got an estimate for a mandrel bent exhaust yesterday from Hanksville Hot Rods, Inc in Littleton CO. I told them that I have all the parts already (muffler, tip, etc) and that I just needed the custom bends and the install.
So they gave me an estimate of $400, which isn't bad all considering they bend it out of one piece in house, instead of welding a bunch of various bends together.
So that's my plans for beginning of Spring, as soon as it warms. Just thought I share lol.

Update: Hanksville will be installing my custom mandrel bent cat-back in April, since they are currently busy with numerous roll cage projects.
This will cost twice as much, but it will be mandrel bends instead of crush bends, and they did seem a lot more professional than your average muffler shops. I also went to the same shop that did my 2.5" crush bent setup on my Malibu last year, but the guy that used to work there left, so the tards that work there now, told me some BS about 2.5" not fitting and rattling, so I left as fast as I could lol.
On a side note, I got pulled over today by the Fort Collins Police (old ass cop on a motorcycle, same guy that used to stalk my high school parking lot, waiting to pull kids over), he pulled me over for going 78 in a 75 on I-25, and "tailgating" him, I was like 4 car lengths behind him, and he said I should be 8 car lengths behind (1 car length for every 10mph). He let me go with a "warning", figures.

Once spring really hits, I'll take a trip further into the mountains, hopefully see some nice color coming back, this winter crap is depressing...
