Front pipe is easy. Make sure you have new gaskets, unless you don't mind running the risk of reusing your old ones. 1-2hr job, to let pipes cool down. If you can find a local place to work on it, I can help and I'll have all the tools you'll need to do it.



Depending on my work schedule, I may be down to help. I have yet to install my JDM underpanels bc I have no where to work on my car lol.
Ya I finally got them in. I just lined up the subframe as close as I could with the jack and put a little more force on the bolt. You just have to be careful not to cross-thread them.

Should I still get new gaskets if my car has 8k miles?

Tbh, I don't know where I'd work on it besides my place if I can't at yours (for the front pipe), but if you're down to help me put in tail lights I can cruise over and buy you In n Out haha

New gaskets are totally up to you. You run the risk of a leak if you reuse old gaskets. Easy fix...basically just reinstall the pipe with new gaskets but it means doing it 2x. Some people reuse old gaskets and have no problem...but hit or miss from my experience. My brother installed an exhaust reusing gaskets...had a leak for a few days but it went away. I like the peace of mind and my car only gets the best. To each their own.
