A bit long but my problem is that the piece where the screws go does not match. Is it worth it cutting it and welding a piece from civic or no

If there's space under the car I would think that an exhaust shop could make the pipes work for it. If you want a simple DIY solution you should buy the proper Civic muffler that bolts on.
