* * How Do I Ship Exhaust - Catback * *
Hey fellas, I want to know if I want to ship my stock exhaust (catback), how do I do it? I mean do I wrap it, put it in a huge box, or what?
Thanks
Thanks

FWIW, I don't think the Ti's are half the weight of the stockers.
From the sticky:
Cat-back Exhaust
17 lbs per side - Z06 Ti - Src
24 lbs per side - OEM steel - Src
FYI - If you ship them together and/or box them, UPS may rate on dimension first and then weight, pushing the shipment into a oversize category.

Bubble wrap the tips/flanges as mentioned by HummelS above and you're good to go

That's the way I would do it.
