overall impressed with the packaging. except the tips. the tips were just thrown in there under everything on the bottom and was stuck underneath one of the mufflers. the connecting piece to the tip was bent. the connecting piece of the muffler to the tip was actually hanging out of the hole you see in pics below.

nothing against corsa but UPS had a field day with the box. :-( my dad works for ups too for last 30years so I already complained to him. fortunate enough I think I can work the dent out :frusty::frusty::frusty: and get the tip to fit.

I've already contacted american muscle about it and sent them these pics. so just a heads up yall to THOROUGHLY inspect your exhaust no matter who makes it.

Whaaaaaaaat! That's nuts! Can you shoot me over your order number? That's totally unacceptable for me and there's no way I'm going to have you using this system.

Drop me a line and I'll get to work for you!

Fairly normal for most exhaust shipment. I pretty much plan on using a small ballpeen hammer to reshape at least a couple connections every time I order new.

Sorry to see that UPS dropped an elbow from the top rope then scored a submission via box lock with your package :^( I can tell you that's not how it goes into the box lol. We use expanding form fit foam bags for a reason!

This may not have been a UPS problem. My Corsa exhaust was perfectly boxed but one of my pipes looked exactly like that and needed some "massaging.
