looks good.

im surprised your drive axle is already rusted in those picts. it looks quite a bit worse than my 9yr old G's drive axles which have minor surface rust. as long as the cv joint's arent leaking it's fine though.

i recommend you touchup spray the diff housing and others using rust reformer.

wait, you have a single outlet exhaust? wat to place under the other muffler cut out then?

would look like the cheap-trim accord sedan with one muffler outlet and nothing on other side.... just an empty exhaust tip arch...

i remember some old's car that had faux tips on one side. that was so f-ed up. you can see concrete through the pipes.

I'm sure someone makes a filler for that. There was a manufacturer for on for the SRT when people went to single tip exhaust.
