Went for a drive up the mountains during the weekend and this happened

oh noes!!! please raise ur car back up.. there should be no reason why ur bottoming out. nothing u can do now... it's very hard to weld Ti. it might effect it just a little... but u just knocked the resale value down the drain.

Ugh that sucks. It looks pretty bad to. Has the sound changed? I would take it off and see just how bad it is and maybe find someplace that can look at it.

We fix titanium exhausts systems all the time. This does not look that bad!
