Sad this has become commonplace. I paid extra for the 'Made in the USA' sticker on the pipe but after using this companies exhaust for 3 cars now, I'm pretty sure a 12 year old Chinese girl could weld better with her eyes closed and her hands behind her back. But it's the price I have to pay since Toyota no longer makes these and it's either this 'American Made' crap or crappier Chinese crap. Part of the disposable car society we live in now I guess. I'm just glad it's crappy workmanship and not my car.
