Thanks for the input everyone...

Darin, that sheet metal screwing together your exhaust thing sounds just about my speed (remember how i fixed my leaky fuel pump bracket by pouring half a tube of Seal-All over it? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" /> still working a year later.)

anyway, i took the easy way out and ordered a new "tail pipe assembly" from toyota before i read your post...i'm thinkin' i might try to cancel the order and just clamp one together myself, though...
