Exhaust is on
Finally, my full turbo back exhaust system is on, heres some pictures for everyone. Because i know how much you all love pictures. During the shipping stages the tips on my Borla exhaust got dented slightly, i'm very pissed at the delivery people cause not only were the pipes in a box but also rapped in like 4 layers of bubble rap (the big kind). One pipe on each of the mufflers is bent, i guess i could just bend it back, well i think it can be bent back. But it shouldnt have ever been dented 
. Sorry about the quality of the pics, i think my camera was drunk at the time or something. Enjoy, and let me know what you think.

Looks good man. I agree with RPS 13 about filing the claim though. I bought brand new headlights from Coz and had them shipped out for an HID retrofit. There were cracks in both of the lights after delivery and UPS had to pay for them.

Once I noticed the dents, I would've been on the phone with the retailer and the shipping company. No way would I've put that on my car. If you can't get the dents out all the way, it will always bug you.

Even if you keep them and intend to live with it, maybe you could get a credit or some money back from the retailer or the shipping co. A lot of times it's cheaper for them to give you some dough for your troubles than to pay for shipping and a new exhaust.
The only problem you might run into is they'll probably ask why you installed it in the first place if it was damaged when you got it. They might try to say it was involved in wreck or you ran over something that dented it. It might be worth a try though.

Sorry man, i dont think filing a dispute w/ the shipping company or telling the retailer will do you much good now, the only other option is to just try to fix it, but it still looks clean, and i cant wait to see the final product
