Default Where can I Get Exhausts Done?

Where would I be able to have my exhaust/muffler done? Any shop or...what. Also, Who knows some nice sounding exhausts, that aren't too big for the accord coupe V6, and not TOO loud.

Eagerly waiting for your replies - thanks.

dude you live in LA.......your probably minutes away from 15 different shops that would do exhaust for you....

and if your looking to go aftermarket, why not just DIY?

any muffler shop can do exhaust work.

if you want to know how some exhaust systems sound, check out the Accord Exhaust Sound Clip Thread.

Meineke and Midas are two popular chain shops that do custom exhaust work.

V6's have a nice tone to them with exhausts. If your not looking for something TOO loud i suggest magnaflow mufflers.

Would it be better in all, to have the whole Exhaust done or just buy the mufflers??

Your best bet is to buy a complete cat-back from an aftermarket manufacturer. A local muffler shop is going to install crush-bent tubing which is what you have now, and it sucks. Aftermarket cat-backs use mandrel-bent tubing which doesn't restrict exhaust flow. If you do get an aftermarket cat-back try installing it yourself, you'll save some cash and learn something. And don't expect huge power gains from any cat-back or muffler swap. Whith a good aftermarket cat-back you'll be lucky to get a few horse, with a Midas crush-bent you won't get anything.

Yeah, any muffler or performance shop can install it for you. Aftermarket cat-backs are a very easy install.
