Need a good exhaust shop Seattle/Tacoma

Hey all,

Like the title says i'm looking for a good exhaust shop in the area. I just installed my new exhaust and it doesn't quite fit right and occasionally I get a horrendous rattle that makes me want to drop kick a kitten...j/k.. but seriously, it makes me mad.

I don't have the means to fix it myself so i'm looking for a good shop to make a little alteration to the hangars or something so it doesn't touch the heat shield.

edit: i might want to weld some sort of resonator or silencer to the mid-pipe of this thing -- it's kind of loud. That's why i want a "good" shop FYI

Time to ***** my exhaust picture

Called a rubber hammer, crowbar and some muscles. Just beat back the heat shield. Its metal it will move.

I think I'd rather try a bit more civilized method. That is a very Rawrx8 solution though

FYI - Pretty much the whole top of the rear muffler touches the top of the heat shield, so i'm not sure if moving the heat shield will prevent it from rattling. I think i need to drop the whole exhaust down.

I had Worldone Performance put my Greddy SP2 on and they did a great job.
