Dallas shop OEM 4-pipe mod availability

Anyone know of a shop that can redo a 4-pipe OEM exhaust mod? I used wraps that appears to becoming undone. Thinking replacing the perforated pipes with actual closed pipes is the better option.

Try EurAuto Shop in Plano. They did my 2 pipe mod and it turned out well and I tought they charged a reasonable price.

Did they utilize the wrap method (wrapped the perforated pipes) or full pipe weld by either covering or replacing perforated pipes with steel pipes).

Thanks I’ll check them out.

It's been a while and I wasn't there when they did the work but I believe they replaced 2 of the perforated pipe sections with solid pipe and welded in the new sections.

Awesome, full pipe replacement seems to be the ideal method. The wrap method, even with stainless steel clamps lasted at most a month.

Well they wouldn’t do it since my muffler box has already been cut into. I understand where they’re coming from but it’s still doable from my limited welding knowledge.

Anyone have any other shop recommendations? So many shops in Dallas won’t do it for around $500.
