A few things that have worked in the past, were to (1) take the H-pipe off of the car, take it to a shop, and tell them it's from a recreation vehicle that you're building, and see if they'll do it that way. (2) take your car to a po-dunk shop, walk up to a mechanic, NOT THE FRONT DESK, and say "Here's my car, here's my mufflers, here's some cash, no questions asked. When can I come pick it up?" I don't really recommend that, but it's worked for a friend of mine a couple of times. Another option is taking it to a motorsports shop if you have one in your area. Usually they don't hassle you about stuff like that, but they charge more because they know they can. Good Luck
