I already have a flange for the midpipe, all the shop would need to do is do a simple bend on some 3" pipe, weld in a flexible pipe, weld the vband connections and the mid pipe flange. I'm guessing around $200 in labor parts will be about $200.

Check out their work.

The charge would be about $50.00 each if we get 3 people or more. Anyone else interested?

I bet they can do it, they just need 3 or more to pay for actually digitizing the logo.
