Upper Pan Hard Bar?

I notived this dent in my exhaust pipe in this picture.

Dent is in the pipe above the highlighted part.



The part that I am talking about is squared in the black line.

I know that the (I don't know what it is called, but since it is above the pan hard bar, I am going to call it the upper pan hard bar) upper pan hard bar cause it. Is there any thing that is produced that is a replacement to this? Thanks in advance.

That is a brace for the panhardbar. The dent was put in the exhaust by the manufacturer to clear the brace; the brace did not cause the dent.

Oh, ok. Thanks. Do the aftermarket cat-backs have those?
And, what about the pan hard brace? Anyone make anything aftermarket for that? I don't like the red PHB with a rusty brace....lol.

Check Thunder Racing, a board sponsor. I believe they carry what you're looking for.

Score!!! Dad is getting me the Hooker Super Comp shorties for Christmas and paying for the coating. I just gotta get the pan hard brace and pay for the exhaust. I might even get the whole exhaust coated. Ceramic coating on the shorties are $95 at a very local shop and $10 a foot for the pipe. That would be sweet. I think I am gonna run duals, so the money I save on the y-pipe will go for piping and coating. But I think that it will be worth it. What do you guys think?

I would, but I plan to replace the L03, so coating it would be a waste. Everything I am doing now is build toward a modded 4th Gen motor. I'll probably coat that entire thing before I drop it in. Thinking about having the under carraige (not the suspension, just the underbody) Rhinolined. Like the truck bed-liner.

You might consider POR-15. Easy and cheap.

Oh. That would be good.
That stuff looks good and lasts. What color do you think would look good. I was thinking about unpolished aluminum grey.
