Perfect fit on the engine side, on the muffler side you may need an adapter if your's is like mine where both pieces are flared out. Other than that it was and is a perfect fit. I fully stand behind this company and recommend purchasing from them.

Excellent welds, great pressed in bolts with what looks like corrosion resistant material they're made of, and super thick flanges to avoid distortion. I love the construction of these catalytic converters.

This catalytic converter appears to be well built and of good quality materials. I have not been able to install the converter yet. But the ease of installation looks straightforward on my 2008 Chevrolet Aveo5 so it won't take very long. The converter comes with new gaskets and nuts. A very good value.

Cheap alternative to the local parts house.Working as a mechanic I've replace many converters over the years and have learned that price typically equals useful life. If you just need a couple more years use out of your car go with a cheap cat to get you through your emission test, plan on keeping it for a long time, I would suggest going with o.e. or a premium replacement part.
