My 2004 is rotted out at the back of the muffler. Not leaking yet, but will be soon. Luckily for me, a new exhaust system should be going on in a week or 2.

I expected the factory exhaust to last longer this as the exhaust on my '99 lasted several more years and many more miles than this.

Anybody else have this problem?

I just noticed the exhaust pipe on my 2006 has rusted through behind the muffler... only 4 years... I was looking at MBRP years ago. Is the MBRP 304 stainless still a good pipe, or will even the aluminumized version last maybe 8-10 years? I hear the cat-back exhaust can be a PITA to remove/install by yourself, what do you think?
