If the inlet on the muffler is the same you could just use that and then weld it to the stock pipes as long as the muffler will fit into the current spot on the Bonne. You will not find a complete aftermarket kit that will just clamp, bolt-on, etc to the Bonneville. The H-body wasn't exactly given much love.
This one right here:

Looks to be about the same as OEM, but in stainless. Stainless has more muffling properties and normally creates a more mellow sound. Alot of money for something you have to get on your knee'* to see. Might as well stay on your knees to accept the $1356 price tag.

More European, less musclecar.

I guess sounds a personal choice thing. I couldn't stomach that price vs a little over $500 for OEM replacement from GM Direct. The 2002 Concept car came with the Corsa system. To bad GM'* number crunchers overuled the engineers who designed it.

I've seen them advertised for around a grand. Be nice to actually reproduce the prototype.

I personally love the sound as is. Mellow when sitting at a light, low rumble on accelaration, and nice raspy thunder WOT. I think GM engineers did an excellent job for what the Bonneville is. A sport luxury sedan. Seems so many want the Bonneville to be a Firebird or GTO and put what it is down. And all I can think is.....So, why then did ya buy it???
