Hi all,
bought Borla Atak quad tips for my 2017 rs looking to see if anyone has done it and would like to help me install it around GTA Area? I called multiple muffler shops from google and received quotes like 250,300, 320 +tax to install an axle back total bs. Saw multiple videos and max it will take 20-30 mins job.

You can do it yourself no problem, hardest thing is cutting off the old exhaust, I have done it twice, once with a hack saw and another with one of those chain style exhaust cutters. The cuttings takes some time and exertion if you don't have power tools, but still only took me an hour or so.

I did mine
Cut old one off with recipricating saw
Lots of room to work were you have to cut
It’s maybe a couple hours at home by the time you jack and support
The car
Cut and install
There’s videos on line of ppl doing the job
