If you're looking to keep the stock muffler, you only need steps 4 and 5 above.
$350 to do *just* the right angle is madness. Are those shops suggesting that it would take 3+ hours to do it?!? Insane.
Pricing breakdown:
Product - I got the Borla 40665 on Amazon for around $100.
Labor - 1.5 hours for the entire job = $140
~$240 for everything is much less than ~$700(plus labor!) for a complete system.
If you decide to do business with the shops that quoted you those astronomical prices, at least make sure they give you time to get your pants off before they start.

Thanks for the info. I'll defiantly need to shop around. Both shops said the exhaust was stainless and they would need to bend it rather than cut/ weld
