Is This OEM?

Hi Guys. The other day the front underbody plate separated from the diffuser without warning on the road. Since it was late friday afternoon, the only place open with a lift was Pep Boys. Turns out a screw or two went missing and then with a little bit of speed, ripped the rest out of their sockets. Was fixed super quick and easy thank god. It was, however the first time I had the car on a lift and I noticed the exhaust system looks to be stainless steel. Im not sure if it comes like this from the factory or not. I took a few pictures and maybe you guys can tell me if this is OEM, or if not, who do you think it comes from. Thanks again!

Stock.

Honestly, what else would it be made of besides SS? Are you expecting titanium from the OEM?

Yep that looks OEM
Though neither the V8 or the V12 manifolds are SS

Actually no. considering that the manifold wasnt stainless steel i was surprised they didnt cheapen it for the entire system.
