Cracked exhaust flanges replacements?

Is there a way or a repair kit for the mid exhaust flanges? They are rusted and WIS implies that they come pre mounted on the pipes. I wouldn't want to buy the entire exhaust for these.



Thank you

Haha...just encountered this exact same issue during my warranty fuel tank replacement. There is no replacement part for this from Mercedes. You can only replace the entire muffler assembly. I just ended up having everything welded together.

In your second picture the pipe in the foreground is called by MB "slip fit" and has as separate parts a ring and a clamp that will be on the upstream pipe The other 3 clamps appear to be pre-installed on the pipes. I am getting the 2 MB parts plus this that was made for BMW and has good chance to fit there, https://www.ebay.com/itm/BMW-E46-M3-....c100706.m4781. I really would not want to weld them.
I can't attach pictures on this forum if my life depended on it.
