Default DIY Exhaust Kits - Anybody Get One?

I'm researching exhaust kits to complete the system after getting the Jegs Y-pipe and found these "complete" DIY kits on Ebay:
First Option -- I like the 50 Delta Flow since I ran one for about ten years but the pipes don't have the hangers welded on. Price $297:


2. Second Option -- This kit has the hangers on but doesn't come in Delta Flow 50, only Super 44 (louder) and it's cheaper at $235:


I'm torn between the two. Also concerned the pipes will clear the hitch in the back. The last kit I had was custom installed and had side exits. There is an option but it's over 300 and I can't see how the pipes would fit exactly from the pictures:


Thoughts? Anybody have one of these? At the moment, I'm running a cheapo glasspack and straight pipe off the Y-pipe dumped under the cab so it's pretty loud inside.

Anyone in your area do custom pipe bending? The lack of cats might be a stumbling block.....

Huh? Cats? This is a bolt up system post intermediate pipe. Which I have. Besides, I'm a dog person.
I don't want to use a shop. Hence the DIY kits since I've done all my own exhaust work for over five years.

Glad I waited. After reviewing the posts very carefully I see the Performance Curve is the only option it turns out because the other two come with 3" inlet when I have 2.5" from the Y-pipe. Hopefully it will fit around the hitch. The other brands are meant to fit the 2-3/4" stock size which makes sense.
