Default used exhaust

Hey im gonna go check out some guys apexi world sport 2 (ws2) exhaust on monday. What should i look for when buying an exhaust. I never bought any other performance parts for my car yet as i just got it a few months ago.

So yeah what things to look for when looking at it. He said there are a few scratchs on the mid pipe and that hes only had it on from april of this year and took it off in september.

Thanks

Check the fiberglass matting or whatever insulation material might be in the muffler as well and make sure it's not falling out.

Really only works on "fart cans", the WS2 tip may be too small.
