Just spent 8 hours last weekend repairing something just like this on my wife's LaCrosse. Was a paint but it paid off, used nothing more than duplicolor perfect match and 3M sandpaper. Turned out great.

Put on a AP Exhaust Xcelerator muffler, p/n XS2589. Basically a Magnaflow 12589 knock off.

Cut off that huge, ugly resonator and installed the SLP Delete kit. A reasonably inexpensive, quick & simple mod that makes the rig look a lot better and sound a tad better, too, especially at start-up.

Pulled the curled door trim off. Took the wife's hair dryer and heated it up. Peeled off like a charm. Took the 3M eraser to it, then followed up with some Turtle wax finishing compound. Came out perfect like it was never installed to begin with. Pics to come later.
