Default Finally finished/fixed my downpipe

it was too long under the oil pan causing it to scrape the ground, and I needed to weld the flex pipe and flange to it so I could bolt it to the rest of my exhaust. I finally got a chance to do it yesterday

Here's a pic of the aftermath...

I dont have any before pics, but it had about 3 different angles and it was about 4.5 inches longer before the bend. I had a muffler shop add a section of pipe to it on install day (before I got the welder) and they made a mess of it. You can see where they welded compared to mine. theirs are all big and messy. I'm pretty proud of teh fill-in weld I did around the flange on this downpipe. The flange is 3" and the pipe is 2.5". The welds came out pretty smooth and nice. I wish I got pics of it, but oh well. I only have the overall finished prduct
