I recently purchased a 2003 G35 Coupe and I'm new to the site so bare with me. My car is lowered and I hit something under my car that damaged the Y-Pipe. I took my car to the dealer adn they wanted $560 to replace it, so I figured I would look at something aftermarket. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Tex,

I would go with the Stillen Y pipe. $255 and better than stock performance. I beleive some others have it on their G35 coupe's. Here is the link:

That bites...sorry to hear...welcome to NICO!!

Take a look at an x-pipe which is supposed to help deliver more power. Talk to Joe at everything g35...he is incredible helpful

How low is your ride? Now I am wondering if I should drop mine or not.

While your at it, might as well upgrade the exhaust from the cat-back...

It was already lowered when I bought it, but it is about an inch drop. I'm in between on lowering cars because I love the look and better handling but it killed the bottom of my Audi S4 and tore up the exhaust and piping. I guess it depends on how you drive and where you live. I live in AZ now and everything is pretty much flat so it's usually not an issue. I believe my current damage was from going in and out of my parking garage at work.
