Exhaust leak help
 
I have a 2017 brz that came with aftermarket front pipe and catback. Unfortunately though, the front pipe section that bolts to the catback has a standard flat flange while the catback section that bolts to the front pipe has a donut flange.
As you can already guess I've been dealing with a small exhaust leak. I've tried using a donut gasket paired with a standard flat gasket but still getting a small leak.

My question is, has anyone run into this issue and have a solution that does not involve cutting and re-welding a matching flange?
