I'll have to jack her up this weekend and just check it out. I bought all the tools to do the job, sans impact wrench, so I guess replacing the bolts if it is that wouldn't be too bad, or tightening the cat heat shield, which ever might be the case.

Yeah, if you're gonna get under there and inspect anything, you might as well kill two birds with one stone and replace those bolts between the headers and the A-pipe. It can't hurt.

If I had to do it again I'd pay a shop. Just for the sake if anything goes wrong(broken bolts, mounts, etc) the shop is responsible. Also for the sake of ease. I no longer have time to mess with the car.
