Does the exhaust actually leak from those dents?

I've got a GT Spec brace that replaces that bent brace up front. Albert had inquired about it so I guess he has dibs. If he buys it, perhaps you could buy his OEM brace. If he doesn't want it, then I guess you can have it.

reason it cost 2000 to fix is the frame got bent by having that damaged for so long, and no it doesnt leak just a god awful noise.
