IS this some type of trick question, becasue I was under my car over the weekend and my HKS exhaust looks okay good. 35K plus miles, and ONLY minor knicks from driveways that are too angled, too quickly.

here is a quick draw with paint the flange cracked and eventually peeled off in the direction of the arrow when we pulled the exhaust off we were able to peel the flange of easily by hand it was barely holding on at that point

Looks like an exhaust hanger.

Did you take it to a good exhaust shop for their opinion?

If it's just the welds they can be fixed for sure. I'm also sure that HKS can provide you a replacement for some of the pieces that have failed so that you don't need to purchase a brand new exhaust.
