repairing damaged Akrapovic/BMW M5 exhaust
I have a Akrapovic Titanium Exhaust that was damaged from a rear end accident to my 2016 M5. Exhaust has some minor damage and could be reused if it is repaired. I have spoken to a few exhausts shops here in Portland that indicate that they can do the welding, however either getting pieces/parts (titanium tubing) seems to be the issue. I am hoping to locate a shop that can do both the welding/tube bending/shaping and sourcing of the materials or obtain actual Akrapovic sub assemblies or fab up what only what is needed, rather than have to purchase the whole Akrapovic Exhaust system that was a BMW oem parts (that runs around $7k). Anyone here have any advice?

Kuni Auto Collision Center did the work. Only a handful of shops are BMW authorized, trained, and certified to do the special paint application process. They ordered a new exhaust and left me with the bent peices. So now, once repaired, I am transplanting the akrapovic to a 2012 BMW 550i
