That is a very nice setup and well worth the investment cause at this point I'm guessing also the damage may be rather more extensive... but not really where the immediate problem is. The damage appears to be behind the rear strut and before the muffler, a replacement piece or patch could be done. A skilled exhaust person would be worth seeing, IMO. Parts places do sell bandage style wrap-on repair kits that I have seen work quite well when done carefully (use goggles and a good wire brush).

Don't panic, check everything, post more pics if you want. It's not likely to get much worse very fast but it won't go away without some effort. Money is always a concern and if things don't have to be replaced... Good Luck!
