All I can say is you get what you pay for. Those clips sound horrible, sorta reminds me of an economy car with a over sized shiny coffee can exahust on it. If you want a decent exhaust that will last you the life of the vehicle, go with Gibson, or a Maganaflow, or another reputable after market exhaust. A Gibson exahust has same size bends unlike the cheaper exhausts you see out there. You also want to go with stainless steal, just like your OEM muffler, this way it will not rot out after 4 years..
