You could have saved yourself a lot of trouble and ordered a mandrel bent tubing kit form VRS for $125 shipped. It does the trick I guess, and urine Canada.

Could have, but that would near double my cost, and this way, I can say I fabbed, my own exhaust COMPLETELY from scratch, showed of my welding and fabbing skills. Also for 125.00 I could have mandrels cheaper locally, but that still more costs.

You could have bought 1 mandrel U bend for 12 dollars and saved yourself about 45-60 mins in extra fab time. I'm not a big fan of whiteybends, but hell it works and its cheap so more power to ya

I just went with the 1 180 when i was ordering the bends to make my new exhaust. Works much better than cutting endless angles and welding them. Just gotta weigh your options. 45mins of work or $10.

Very nice job though. It looks good.
