Default My T1R exhaust CRACKED!

im going to the bank. park, do business, get back in the S. turn on the car and i hear my car roar and a horrible rattling. I assume a bolt got loose and I have an exhaust leak but when I get home and look under I see this:



the weld that connects the piping to the flange snapped CLEAN off. this is the $1000+ t1R 70r em model mind you. guess they are really made in taiwan. t1r and evasive motorsports probably making a killing off these charging the prices they do!

i would expect this from a 100 dollar ebay exhaust. but for this price point and this "reputable" company is just plain ridiculous.
