Exhaust shop in SF Bay Area

Looking for an exhaust shop to install an MPE and do a little custom work on the tips - basically swapping E92 tips for E90 tips, which means popping rivets off, cutting off the inner pipes within the tips (don't care for those anyway) and riveting on the shorter E90 tips.

I'm in Milpitas so prefer South Bay, but can also do East Bay.

I went to el camino muffler for some custom exhaust tip welding and he did a great job for cheap. even works on saturdays, hit him up!

FYI though, E90 tips on your E92 are going to exhaust under your bumper.

Thanks. I'm looking to buy an exhaust for an E92 (simply because it's so hard to find an MPE for E90) and have the tips shortened to fit my E90.

Still looking for a shop that welds Inconel (Minute Muffler said they didn't). Any sources?

I had the OEM mod done a few months before and finally got around to installing the tips. All Todd did was install the EAS tips.
