I deleted my secondaries and straight piped them. Really cool, cheap mod. Also had the pipes flanged so I can put back my secondaries if I want to in the future. Used high quality stainless steel with a trust worthy tuner who I've used a lot (multiple cars). Total job cost me 30,000 jpy (around 300$) possible to do it cheaper but why shop around and use some shop I don't know or trust to maybe save 100$, I'd rather get the job done properly and not deal with headaches later. Good luck!

I know there is a metric **** tonne of info on this but I want a specific answer to a a specific question.
I think Im gonna delete my 2nd cats, and replace with straight pipes. No need to go buy an X or an H or anything like that. Just gonna get em cut out, and replaced with 2 straight pipes.
Should be just about any damn competent shop able to do that?
How much ya figure? I just wanna make sure I don't get hosed.
Spare me the search. Ive earned at least one fast answer around here lol.

Thanks! Yes and no, yes it's satin grey/ matte silver, and no not a wrap. It's one of the oringal paint colors the black series came with. I have a thread somewhere here with a few pics of her plus the mods I've done. Done a few more things that I'll be adding pics to that thread soon too.

No interest in shopping around really, I have a couple shops in mind, but if they hit me with an "AMG tax" I just want to be prepared for it, so I can call them on it and get some sort of normal pricing.
I am away the next few days doing something fun I will probably post about, and then I will get it done next week.

So I got this done today. Found a shop that a bunch of local import guys go to. Couple old guys who have been doing it forever and could not care less what kind of car I was driving. Hence, there was no AMG tax. Cost me $150 plus tax. Now I just need some time to drive and listen.
Thanks everyone for your help.

Awesome that is what it should cost. Honestly I think I can get a local shop to custom fab me an exhaust for around 300. I even thought about getting some electric cutouts for a few hundered more...new a c63 first.. The dealer is supposed to drop off that Silver C63 at my house tomorrow for a test drive. Photos to follow shortly after
