DO NOT BUY ultimate racing downpipes
If you live in an area that gets snow DO NOT BUY UR DOWNPIPES. After ONE winter, this is what mine look like. They are tricky: on their website they don't mention that they use mild steel for the flanges/bungs.... but that is the material and it is horrible.
They told me in an email that this is just "surface rust" and that I'm fine... I am ordering AR downpipes shortly and will never deal with UR again. |

I have the ultimate racing catback exhaust..and I am pretty sure mine doesnt look anything like that. But, I dont live in an area with salty roads and snow.

When I first worked with them on my catback exhaust fitment back in late 2007..they were very helpful. Give them a chance to come around.
