F sport exhaust: Reputable installation locations in NorCal (Southbay preferred)
Hi!
I'm new to CL and just purchased an F sport exhaust for my car. Any recommendations on reputable locations where I can go get it installed for a quality job and good price? I searched on the forums but I might be looking in the wrong places (still figuring out how to use this site lol). Southbay locations are preferred but I'm open to others as well. Worse case I'll just have the dealership install it. I know, I know... dealership labor is expensive
Your recommendations are much appreciated! Thanks!

Do the install yourself, very easy to do. It took me 30-45 minutes installing the exhaust on my own. The only hard part about the install for me was getting the stock exhaust off of the rubber hangers and swapping two of the rubber hangers out for the ones that are supplied with the F-sport exhaust. soap and water did make it easy for me to slide the rubber hangers off.
Bonus: you feel good afterwards knowing that you installed the exhaust yourself.

Like others said, I did the install myself for the first time. It's a simple remove and replace.
Use WD-40 or Liquid Wrench on the hangers... they slide off like a charm.
Depending on the age of the exhausts on your car... the bolts may be rusted. Spray WD-40/Liquid Wrench on the bolts and let it soak over night. Tap on the bolts to help the lubricant seep into the thread.
You should have no issues unscrewing the bolts.
Take it to Speed Element or a muffler shop like Midas... they charged my cousin $20 bucks to install exhaust on his Integra. Shouldn't be that expensive to remove and replace.

Don't know a place in SAC but Autosport 209 in Stockton is an expert on Lexus. He's a member here on CL and has owned several Lexus as well.
He is also holding a meet this Saturday. Check out the other thread announcing AS#15.
Several heavily modded Lexus will be out there. Some have had their work done at this shop.
