Exclamation Need some help from you guys

Hello fellow members i was just wondering if anything bad might be going on with my 04 camry. I recently backed into a curb that was in my blind spot and scrape the exhaust a little. but it drives fine, the thing is now when i start the car it makes a little sputter or rumble sound from the back. good thing its not in the front. i need some assistance quick. and i hope its still safe to drive. Much help needed thanks in advance.

good news is its a good excuse to get an aftermarket or custom exhuast

Stick your head under the car and look and see if the pipe is crushed or split. Also be aware of any exhaust odors inside the car. If you want to be safe, get it fixed asap. If the visual inspection looks okay, you can wait.

thanks for the help guys after thourough investigation with a flashlight i found out what was wrong. the bushing fro the ehxaust came off so with a wrench i uninstalled the bracket with my dad's help holding the exhaust we placed the metal hinge back into the bushing and solved the start up rattle. but thanks for the replys.
