I actually got them off craigslist. I was still debating when I posted and didn't want anyone to ****** them out from under me.
I picked them up today for $180. The guy thought they were stillen. I talked to a custom muffler shop today(fixed the holes;free) about installing them. He said he could do it for $400. I'm going to have them sandblasted and painted first before I do anything.

I still need to fix the hole where the skid plate was and add another one. Next step is paint.
Yeah, I know I need to paint my deck too. I power washed it a few weeks ago. Now waiting for a dry spell. May in New England is very wet.

Great find. I bought a set of gen.2 or gen.3 cattman headers with the y for 280 on Craigslist back in novemberish just getting them on today. You made out a little better. Mine has plate and no egr but two small dings on one header. All in all though I'm happy. Good luck.

AWESOME FIND!!!!! That my pal is Cattman Gen 3 Header assy!!! It had a skid plate and it apparently fell off (The welds were too small) you can still see the tack weld on the loop portion! The Gen 3"s incorporated the 3 fancy high velocity merger sections which is visible!!!! Wow hard is it to believe someone would leave them on the car and junk it!!! Wowwwww!! Even though the flex section is shorter they're still Gen 3's! I thought I was doing good, finding 4th Gen Maxima Progress Sport Springs, DC Honda Headers, and a 4th Gen Maxima w/ customized Dynomax 17747 performance muffler in the boneyard...Man you got to keep your eyes open! Out there in the boneyard and on Craigslist....

The rear exhaust flange is no big deal. if you can weld, it's an easy fix. If not, get everything else done then take the car to a muffler shop and they can weld on a couple flanges for you.
Worst case scenario, get the mating 2-bolt flange to your cat and a section of pipe long enough to join the two pieces. expand the pipe so that it slides over the back of the y pipe and then trim the end so all of the flanges line up properly on the car. mark all of the parts, pull it off the car, and take it to a muffler shop to have them weld it up.

Cattman has a tendency to change vendors from group to group....Such on the Catbacks must have seen 3-4 difference resonator styles....
