Muffler suggestions for 2003 4dr. ex?

Hey all. I have a 2003 4 door ex that has treated me great. About 2 years after i bought it, the muffler rusted off right after the flange. So i got another one for 60 bucks at the parts store, and 2 years later that rusted off in the same place. It has this primary resonator thing the muffler bolts on to that i can tell is original yet looks brand new. I actually like the low rumble it has without the muffler, but it is a bit loud in the car. Does anyone have any suggestions on a muffler that
1. most importantly, is bolt on and uses the same hangars.
2. is aluminized/stainless and wont rust off in two years.
3. would carry that same rumble out the back.(not as important)
I've seen and heard other civics/4 cyl. cars with these "blast" mufflers on them. To me they sound more like the car is ripping a loud annoying fart than sounding ballsey.
Any suggestions on what to get would be greatly appreciated.
And no offense to anyone with one of those blast mufflers, just not my thing.

Keeping it quiet in the car and loud out back isn't too easy. Headers will develop the sound a lot. I took my cat out and it has a nice rumble, but sadly illegal. Apexi a d skunk make good systems imo
