Removing my Resonator + Muffler tonight (17' IS200T)

Hey guys, anyone got a quick guide on how to remove the resonator and muffler? Is it just undoing a bunch of bolts and screws? Will post before and after videos with sound ofc.

Any advice/things to watch out for?

Its not just undoing bolts, you actually have to cut the mufflers and resonators off with a saw and weld on a straight pipe if you're not replacing with an aftermarket midpipe or axle back

Oh holy ****. What about just removing the mufflers? Is there anything that's bolted on that I CAN remove?

You can unbolt the axle back and take it off but that would remove the tips with it and make the car look dumb

Wow, man I'm about to scrap this thread then. Since I have the newer IS200T with the rectangular exhaust I don't think it would look to dumb but oh well!
Anything else that I can take bolts off of? I'm looking for reversible mods
