Hey guys,

Just bought a Magnaflow CBE off of London3, and he did mention to me that I am missing a part that is used during the installation of the exhaust. Does anybody know what the part is, and where I could purchase it?

Also, I've asked my mechanic how much it would be to install the following:
- Magnaflow CBE
- HID's (for fog lights)
- Eibach ProKit springs
- Koni Yellows

He's given me a price of $300 for everything, plus another $80 for alignment. I feel that this is a good deal, but I could be wrong.
For anyone who's wondering: my mechanic is Kevin So from SFG Automotive (formerly Select Right Car Detailing). Not sure if anyone knows him, he usually deals more with the Honda forums.

Couldn't be more helpful with that part eh London3....
Exhaust: $60-80? (I dunno I did my own)
HID's: $20 ... Honestly do it yourself.
Springs + Struts: $140 @ Jimmy, up to $300 elsewhere, or so I've seen on the forums.


Personally I would say you could get that to about $250.
$80 alignment isn't too far off the best price I know.

Was it a extension? Since he had a hatch and you have a sedan.. since we're playing the guessing game lol

+1 on doing hid's yourself, very easy to do.. and theres a few youtube vids just in case you need help

i don't see any parts missing from your exhaust, it looks the same as my magnaflow. your going to need to use your stock cat with it or get a straight pipe. maybe thats what he was trying to say was missing

Hey! Sorry I just saw this now.
It is just a little bracket that Peter cut off. He told me to tell whoever I sold it to should mention that to the installer and it won't be a problem (they probably wont even charge you for it).
I thought I mentioned it when I handed it off to you, no need for concern :)
Nothing major :P

Yes that's what Jimmy (apologies, not peter) had said. Probably the clamp that connects the CBE to the exhaust? I am not sure... someone would be able to tell you for sure when you take it to install but I assure you it is a very minor part, if you do have to pay for it I dont see it more than $5.
