I dunno guys. I just installed mine yesterday myself and I have no rattles what so ever. Sounds great. It doesn't rub either.

A rattle from the exhaust is obviously different from that of a stereo.

Just turn the radio up and everything should be fine [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Ha Ha turn the radio up! [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG] I dunno I'd be a little ticked off too if mine rattled but it doesn't! Guess i just got lucky.

Right On HondaChic.......but seriously dude, go take it to some professionals, and if they were, then
go see some other professionals. If that happened to me, after wanting and saving for an exhaust
and I finally got it, but now it rattles, I would be PISSED like a bastard. You go tell them what's up !!
