Lou's

So,I went to Lou's exhaust today and asked the guy how to throw on 2 mufflers and a set of tips and they told me 450$...Does this not seem to expensive for just 2 mufflers and a set of tips???Oh yeah and no i didn't get it done

I had two resonators put on my XLR-8 exhaust and it was $260. Seemed reasonable to me.

Its expensive but thats what Lou's usually charges. If you buy the mufflers and tips yourself, go to Jays exhaust to have them installed.

jeez that sounds outrageous. I had my mid muffler removed and replaced with a straight pipe and changed resonators for less than 100 altogether at Lou's custom. changing the muffler and tips shouldnt be THAT much harder to do.... or I could be wrong....
