Check the pics. I got it for $154 shipped(used code for $5 off) and it comes with the gaskets and shipping only took 3 days(NC to NY). Every thing looks very well made. no concerns here. Just cant wait to put it in.

and its a lot bigger in person. Dang it surprised me

I wouldn't be surprised if we start seeing the flex joints fray.

You don't need a lift, just a jack and some jack stands. I'd let BYT do it too, though, if you're not comfortable with it.

What's up with the upper gasket? Mine is a crush-style donut. Are the '08 cars different? I remember seeing this before, but my memory fails me in my old age.

I know it will get dirty, but I thought stainless steel doesnt rust?

It depends on the grade of stainless. I believe the carbon content determines whether it will rust or be magnetic or not. I can't remember exactly.

stainless will probably not stay in perfect condition, u will get some oxidizing, but i believe it will only be on the surface because of the impurities from the metal and from anything on the road.
