So my car got hit by a dear.  Rear right quarter panel is dented and scratched.  The edge of the right door is a bit mishapen about 3 inches vertically, no big deal there.  I just want this dent pulled out and a bit of paint correction.  Also, recently my stock exhaust has been rattling like hell.  There was a bit of an exhaust leak like 4-5 months ago, but its gotten LOUD.  need this corrected as well.  Im in NJ and im thinking about a new muffler and getting custom piping.  Anyone know any good places to get this done?  I dont ahve the money for a catback, though id like one.  Im not looking for anything HUGE, but a nice sound and some good flow would be nice.  

How much you guys think for each of these?

When you go with custom piping and a muffler your going to end up with something LOUD....nice but LOUD. I know someone that went that route and his interior is friggin loud while in fifth gear compared to my N1 Dual thats actually pretty quiet.

I would search the forums (not only this one) to see if anyone is selling a catback exhaust at a cheap(er) price. There is someone that is selling his HKS Hiper for $375 plus shipping.....unless you want to drive down to VA and pick it up.

As for the body...I'm not to familiar with your area, but I would start looking around and asking friends about any good body shops. Usually the ghetto shop, tuck behind a few old building can provide the best service at a good price. OK one more thing....the 240SX is not cheap when it comes to body repairs. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/huh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':huh:'>
