Question Best palce to get a cheapish exhaust?

Hi,
My 99FL 3.7 Quattro decided to suddenly start sounding like a Corvette today while driving to work. While it was great to floor it and hear the roar, I don't think pedestrians appreciate it. Where is the best place to get my exhaust done? It is a second car so I don't need a beautiful stainless steel exhaust, just something to get me going again. Would somewhere like |Kwik Fit be okay?

Jon

Kwik-fit, a back-street place or see if a8parts have the bits you need

A8 parts have some 3.7 exhaust bits so I might see what kwikfit say needs replacing and go on from there.

WEll, it looks like I don't need a new exhaust after all The local garage said that they found a couple of brackets ahd ruste through and the exhaust had popped out of location - hence the sudden onset of the noise. They checked out my front suspension while they were at it and it needs a new front spring and a cv boot. I will have to call a8parts tomorrow am and ask them if the have a spare front non-sport spring.
