Here it is

:eek: :crying:


Gonna raise it up for now till you get it fixed to prevent further damage?

I'm going to simply suggest if this is possible to remove the screws that hold the cf cover slide it away from the dent

have the person doing the work seal the leak and rotate the cf piece to the top or near the top so the damage from the bottom isn't visible and bolt it in place.

I'm sure someone with this setup can correct me if I'm wrong and thats not possible.

But I'm sure you should be able to rotate it to hide the Boo Boo

I believe they are pop-riveted on, not screwed on. So he would need to drill them out, and have rivets reinstalled... Not impossible, just more labor intensive than screws.

OK option 2

Have them repair the leak then have them cut the muffler off, And then cut the front tip near the can rotate the can so the damage is at the top weld it back in place re -weld the tip back on ensuring the FI markings are back on top. I hope that made sense

My god, I am so sorry.

Option 3:
1st Drill the rivets out
2nd Bend the edges back into shape he best you can
3rd Get some copper gasket sealant
4th Pick up a small can of resin. While the CF is apart add a small amount of resign to restructure the CF in that area and get the layers to bond again. When it dries sand it the best you can. Then use 2000, 3000, and polish compound to finish it.
5th Used the Cooper Gasket sealant to reseal the can.
6th Rivet gun from Harbor freight will do the trick to get the rivets back in. May need to go 1 size larger for the damaged hole.
Should do the job.

If not jump to Triples option 2

Gonna attempt it tomorrow if I can. Ill also call tony in the am
N keep you guys posted.

When you say resin? Do you mean like just the fiber glass stuff you get at autozone or lowes?

It is a real bummer to see this and hear about what happened. This is pretty bad. In my honest opinion it is not fixable. The muffler needs to be replaced. Now, you do not have to spend $850 on a new set. You can send me your entire rear section back and I can cut the mufflers out and put new ones in.

I am sure that I will hear from you at some point tomorrow.

Thanks, Tony

That's great to hear!

Looks like ill be shipping it to tony, cough up the money on cc and go With stainless steel cans.

Can you post pics of how low you are? I'm terrified now because I'm pretty damn low and have a carbon FI exhaust coming.

I'm an inch lowered all around, and have the V1 FI Exhaust. I haven't scraped once. (Knock on wood).

As long as you're careful and approach bumps and hills/dips with angles and reduced speed, you should be fine. **Not saying OP wasn't being cautious.

Dude you are so awesome.. :tiphat: PM Sent
