Repair shops ripping off people just as bad as the thieves. $1,000-$2,000+ ??? A Magnaflow converter for my rig is $149. Maybe $50 labor.

In some areas of the US, it needs to be replaced by an OEM original part, or it will not pass inspection and the car cannot be registered.

So, the government doesn’t do much to prevent the crime, but it makes the victim pay dearly for it.

Great.

My cat costs “$250” + $200 labor, accdg to the scam shop I went, I mean..repair shop. I had to go to Ebay to buy it for $76 and get a guy from Craigslist to weld it for another $100.
