the mesh is just in there to protect the flex pipe underneath it from corrosion, should be fine

Unless you hear air leaking or rasp that wasn't there before you are fine.

That's nothing. My Nismo Y-pipe was scraped so bad you could see a hole in the flex pipe. I just had it replaced with a piece of pipe

as long as you don't hear your exhaust leaking or get a check engine light you will be fine.

Man that thing is a big NO NO on the streets. Trust me your car might EXPLODE and IMPLODE all at the same time. Send it to me and I will take care of shipping and disposal.
