Need good exhaust shop in Seatac area.

samps · 04-08-2009, 11:18 PM

I'm going to be getting my Bastuck in a few weeks. I'm having it shipped to a friend in Seatac. Can anyone recommend a good exhaust shop in that area for me to go to? Preferably one that someone has used before and that I can trust with a BMW.

TIA.

No one?

I can just go to a Midas but thought I'd ask here first.

Sorry, not much help. I installed my AE myself, in my driveway, using Rhino Ramps. Not exactly something I'd like to try again though.....

I think the Bastuck requires cutting and/or welding? The AE is totally "bolt on."

Wish I could be of more help...

Thanks anyway. Actually the stock pipes need to be cut just after the diff (I think), and then bolt on from there. If there are no other suggestions I might just head over to a Midas. I'm coming down from Vancouver so don't really know any shops there (other than Midas).

I did a quick search on a few other BMW regional forums, and a few guys have recommended this place in the past:
Dan Fast Muffler & Brake
12200 Ne 12th St Ste 1
Bellevue, WA 98005
(425) 455-0404

Not exactly close to SeaTac, but somewhat on the way home to BC...

I actually had them fab up a "test pipe" for me a few years for my Dodge Ram, and I don't remember any negative issues with the shop. Might be worth a call to see how much they'd charge.

Thanks scollins. Bellevue is a little ways away. But worth a shot.

I took my car there about 2 months ago and had them make me a set of straight pipes. Aaron over there does great work, I've been very pleased with how it came out. If there is nothing closer I definitely recommend giving Dan Fast a call. It was about $250 for me to get straight pipes made by cutting up a stock axle back, and cutting off/flanging my stock exhaust and mufflers so I could swap between the Straights and the Stocks nice and easy. For a simple cut off and weld on of an axle back it would probably be $100-200. I got my car back the same day also which was nice
