Default Muffler rattle, excellent opportunity to upgrade!
I just got this muffler rattle and thought it would be an excellent opportunity to do an exhaust upgrade.
The question is what parts and what brand? I have no clue after reading posts here. I'm more after performance than sound and live in CA so it has to pass smog.

what kind of rattle

I have a rattle but it is located.. I think.. around the tip area.

I also want to upgrade though... but I am afraid my aftermarket extended warranty would give me cr** in case I have an engine issue...

what you guys think ?

So I found the issue, a broken bracket (holding the CAT pipes).
Does anybody know what it's called?
