I guess its not sealed if ur smelling exhaust... i just cant believe they made this part sooo far off. Like someone said b4 the guy must have been wacked out when he set up the jig. it wouldnt b so bad if it wasnt longer. and that looks like more than a half inch off.

Yeah it's about 2.5 inches too long and I meant I couldn't hear the leak anymore lol. I can't believe they can sell something like this.

i know.... you could have a 3rd grader look at this and they would say it wont fit. how the hell did they let this pos reach the public? and WHY!!! How could someone at DC say "yea ok, this looks about right. ship them out"
they might as well have just sent us a straight piece of pipe and a note that says "your *ucked"

I see you must still be working on your reading comprehension skills. BRZpower specifically said he did not return it.

Right, you never said you tried.
Anyway, if a company won't stand behind their product then no point giving them any more of your money so yeah, you are right in not bothering after that.

No shit, I was asking if he tried returning by citing bad fitment or just didn't bother at all.
Lots of people on this forum don't return for some reason and choose to stick with a bad product, I was just asking why.
His reasons are completely valid based on his reply.

So yeah, reading comprehension fail on your end.
If you would like to take jab, make sure you know what you are on about but yeah nice try anyway.
