That exhaust is 1500... Im pretty sure they will only pay the OEM price which is 900 i think... or should I figure out how much my current exhaust costs and make em match it?

hmmm interesting.
driveline offers the jdm rear + aftermarket crash beam that directly bolt on to the rear. if you have to replace to crash beam as well, then go for that combo if you can. afaik, they fit both evo viii and ix.
as for the exhaust, popular options are greddy tic, buschur racing cat backs, megan racing... etc etc etc... these are in the 600-700 bracket if you purchase brand new...

As for the exhausts, if you did want a Tomei Ti Expreme Exhaust, we do have these on sale (for far less than $1500.00). Let me know if you need any pricing.

The estimator will go to Bel-Kirk auto tomorrow to estimate it... I am trying to get them to tell me the time because I want to be there...
When my ninja was totaled, they said it needed 1800 in repairs, I laughed made them come outside with me and i showed him everything that was wrong he said "oh ok didnt see all that...guess it is totaled"
I expect all of you to be praying for a speedy and JDM bumper filled recovery...

Back from Bel Kirk. Was sad seeing my baby with no bumper/tail lights.
Bumper is destroyed, crashbeam needs to be replaced, exhaust needs to be replaced.
Shop is confident there are no issues from the exhaust back to the front of the car and will investigate further when they take the exhaust off.
Insurance is paying
About 1k for bumper (their stock bumper + paint+labor)
400 for stock crashbeam
1k for exhaust system
so total of about 2500 give or take, and since it is a super minor dent on my spare tire well i think they are just going to punch it back out...
I am going to have them cut a check... driveline sales has the JDM bumper black for 850 shipped, crashbeam 250 shipped...
now i gotta find an exhaust.
Also, I have a test pipe instead of a cat, so From what i understood was i would need a cat back exhaust system and instead of connecting to my cat, connect to my test pipe....
but the estimator said the shop said i need a new exhaust and i currently have a turbo back system....
Also the shop said make sure driveline comes with an Absorber with the crash beam, he said a lot of the times the bumpers dont come with one and if it doesnt come with an absorber I dont want it... is this true?

pretty sure I am going to order the jdm bumper/crashbeam as soon as driveline confirms the black is a color match to my evo..
