Anyone selling 2012 Camaro stock exhaust?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone is willing to sell the stock 2012 V6 Camaro's muffler and pipe as I am planning to get rid of my Magnaflow exhaust to keep the sound low.
Thanks!

That will be great if you can post a picture of your exhaust. I hope there will be no issues in installing it on a 2012 2LS version. How much are you planning to sell it for?
Another question, do you know how much a J pipe and the installation of J pipe will cost? The main reason I am looking for a stock exhaust is because of the drone when I am cruising around 1500-2000rpm. I heard that installing J pipe will reduce/eliminate the drone.

Thanks for your response!

They should fit it's the same exhaust as the 2010. Cost I really don't know yet how much are you willing to spend. Also I see ur in san Antonio we could meet up half way? I get out from work at 1am I'll get a picture once I get home.

Thanks for posting the pictures for your stock exhaust and yes I agree with you. Your Borla exhaust looks awesome than the bulky stock exhaust.

I heard installing J Pipes will reduce the drone on my exhaust. So, pls give me a week so that I can check if that works. If that is the case, then I will not need a stock exhaust but I am not sure who will install the J Pipes in San Antonio. I checked with couple of shops here but they look surprised when I ask them about the J Pipes. Anyways thanks again for the pictures and I ll get back to you in a week.

I paid 100 bucks for my J-pipes. Kinda high from what I hear. The place I went also acted like they had no idea what I was talking about. Showed them the thread and gave them the length I needed. Took two tries but they got it. If you've ever seen a cut away of the stock exhaust it has a J-pipe inside of it, sorta. Works the same. Thinking of changing my exhaust to a 3in all the way and will have to get new Jpipes made when I do. I have found a better shop now so no worries

Keep me posted hope it all works out for you. They wield mine and I really don't hear anything but the exhaust. Is your exhaust wielded on or clamped on?

I have the stock exhaust from my 2012 SS just laying in my garage. If it fits your v6 ill sell them to you for cheap, I have no use for them. I'm in San Antonio too.

Yes my exhaust is welded (not clamped) on but the resonator is kinda narrow which makes more noise I believe. Let me check with the auto shops here to see if they can do anything about it and yeah I will keep you posted.
I need to find another Camaro with an aftermarket exhaust just to find out how different mine sounds from others as this is my first car I am driving with an aftermarket muffler. Anyways, thanks for the posts.
