just get the piping pieces you need.....

or go to
www.summitracing.com and pick up some piping...

at any rate that would be the cheapest "good" alternative. your other options would be to go to a local exhaust shop and get some pinch-bends welded on, or they might have mandrel-bent pieces and they could weld them together for you - but chances are that would cost more than just doing the piping yourself.

check out that first link i posted - get the pieces you need and do it yourself.

EDIT: on the downpipe, get the flanges welded on and install it yourself - that would be cheaper than buying a whole new downpipe.
