So UPS dropped off my exhaust today. My car is in the garage, and in the air. I plan on installing tomorrow morning.
For those keeping track of dates:
Ordered 12-25
Est Ship Date 3-22 - 4-5
Got a call on 3-27 to let me know it was being billed and was going to ship soon.
Shipped 4-3
Received 4-7
I've ordered lots of parts, from performance parts, to body parts, and I can say I was pretty impressed with the way the exhaust was packaged. The mufflers and tips had several layers of bubble wrap, and then card board wrap around the outside of the bubble wrap. Every flange was wrapped and taped in bubble wrapped. It was packaged very well. I'm OCD about things, and I was impressed. I'm convinced they could have handed the package to my local postal carrier and it still would have arrived safely.
The parts themselves look really nice however, looks don't mean much until their installed. However I don't expect any problems. FI has made just a few of these.... So my review / feedback of the exhaust will be after the install.
