Default Ark Grip rattling

Hello all, I recently got my exhaust installed about two weeks ago and it's been great until yesterday when this rattling noise started happening.
I have uploaded a video clip to youtube for you guys to hear https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGaR...ature=youtu.be
Please note that it's not hitting against the mid bracer, because that issue was ressolved thanks to this forum!
The shop guy told me that the cat is damage. Now did anyone else have this issue??

I will leave this here for future reference.
My problem was the honeycomb filter inside the cat got loose. I have already been in contact with ARK and they will replace the defective part.

Hi I also have the same issue with the ark mid pipe. But mine is hitting against the cross mid bracer, I'm wondering how did you fix it? Your input would be appreciate it. Thank you!

You can add couple of washers to space out the bracer. It's a very simple fix if you have access to a lift.
