Maybe the dealer can replace under warranty. That's if they don't give you shit about your exhaust.

yea only problem is im at 56k now, and PAA might not even replace the srs sensor that went out again that I had fixed at around 49k, they told me they are going to have to look at it first, but I was told that replacement parts was under a 12k warranty so well see what happens on the 20th when i bring it in.

There is a TSB service bulitine about this, the dealer will put a paint on your exaust. the paint is only for decoration and serves no purpose.
