    Got some new headers, would have been better off making my own

    Just recieved the RMF header rep from an Ebay seller, but i am NOT happy with it. The collector seems to be intented in and not round. The ports don't seem to be very round and around the welds and up the runners there is a sticky yellow substance.

    The seller has offered me a full refund, but it will cost me $160 to return

    Damn shame, i bought the same headers off another seller and they were flawless a couple of years ago.






    PM me if you want to know the seller/brand

    Thanks

    sad to say but, pay for what you get these days.(there just cheap replicas) most of the time its better to go through a company as its less hassle with good products.
    Like they say: Blowers are for bitches, Bottles for babies, and N/A all the way

    Yellow stuff is so headers dont rust (oil).

    Collector looks like freight damage

    Get what you pay for though. They do look shit, what you pay?
