If just cheap maybe try a Walker catback from Rockauto for around $154.
It's showing $223 for me

Would be cheap to go buy tubing from fleet farm and booger it in just for now too=P
This might be my next step!
Or, I'll drop it off at MexiMuffler and let em at it...

What model e30? Late model 325i m20 catback Walker model #46748 for $157, you'll need the muffler straps and shipping might offset the cheap price
Might try a shop like Wisconsin Muffler to see if they have a deal on the same that cuts the shipping down.

hhhmmmm not sure why that one didn't show up for me the first time!
Mine is an 89, so I think the one in the link above would work, right?

do the search for an 89 and it comes up the same: http://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/bmw,1989,325i,2.5l+l6,1011698,exhaust+&+emission,muffler+/+resonator,5872
So muffler for $156.79. Shipping if it was coming to me in New Berlin would be +$22, Strap kit (#36245) if yours are shot +$39.79 and +$7.99 shipping +$11.71 tax = $241.27 for everything.

I might have to try it on a desktop, that website is horrendous to navigate...
I'm thinking at nearly $250 for everything, I'm going to go see what a muffler shop can do for me (magnaflow + bend their own pipes). I know that eventually I'd like to go aftermarket, so I may as well deal with the loudness for now until I'm ready to pony up the extra money for aftermarket.

Makes sense. As long as you're not gassing yourself out, can still hear the stereo, not throwing codes, or attracting unwanted LEO attention just save the $$ and wait for the system you want. Figure winter is going to be cruel to your exhaust anyway might as well complete the rust rot this season and start clean in the spring.

Now you're thinking! Why let your new exhaust be exposed to salty water spray. Go for spring!

Found a $133 exhaust, then I'll need the straps and such yet.. I could buy a can of high temp paint and splat that on there to help the longevity, but the e30 is getting parked once the salt comes out

Just gotta assemble the axle (wheels, hubs, sprocket, etc) and mount the engine and it's complete.

Haven't been on for a few days but this was my Thursday night. Lady tried to beat me through a intersection and lost. She was crossing on Cty A while I was on Hwy 51 out of Stoughton. Whatched her slowly pull out and then gun it to beat me but wasn't even close and I didn't have the room to stop. Swerved right to avoid hitting them straight on and put the whole truck in the ditch. Everybody walked away which was good. So stupid
On a positive note I got the clutch/flywheel replaced on the Alpine 530i yesterday. Trans is in but not bolted up yet.

What are you using for a motor again? Nice fab work by the way

I have a 420cc engine with a CVT on it that needs a home, you should either use it, or build a second frame!

THIS is "Cab Forward Design". Dodge designers would get a half chub from how cab forward it is.
Very glad to hear nothing too serious happened to you or the other driver.
Did she get right out of the car and say "Yep, I'm a massive douchebag"?
