Default F-sport exhaust 80k miles ?

SO between my two is250's that I had, I gotta say I put on about 80K in driving on my original f-sport exhaust that I got around 2009.

I just changed the exhaust to get the new fport witht the f-port etched on the sides, just because i could. So is that exhust considered still good and i mean the old one. Do they go bad after driving some miles ? Do i trash it or it carries some value still? It still sounds good and I passed all emission so Im just not 100% sure what to do with it. I dont have much storage so my shop will hold for a week or so.



what do i do?

You should put it on the members classifieds and get some money from the old F-Sport exhaust. I've seen used F-Sport exhausts go for a little more than half the original price, but not with the mileage you put on yours (but it doesn't make a big difference though, imo). I've never heard of anyone saying that their exhaust goes bad, unless it got holes due to rust.

Or you can give it away to someone... =P

+1 on what knguyenk said.

Unless it's obviously rusted, your old F-Sports are still worth a few hundred dollars (approx. 1/2 or more of your original cost - depending on market demand at the time). Although, because you don't have as much time, be sure to make your price competitive with shipping INCLUDED.

Honestly... It's an exhaust. Who cares how many miles it has? As long as it's not beat to hell, you should have no problem getting a nice chunk of money for it

Just wash and polish it yourself! Save some $$$

Just for your reference, I sold my Fsport exhaust that had around 10k miles for $900. If your exhaust isnt beat up, rusted, or have any dents, then there shouldnt be a reason why you cant get at least $500 for it.
