SO these are the same set you were going to trade me for the Borla duals and then dissappeared and never responded to PMs or anything? Way to be a man. All you had to do was say you had a change of mind.

I hope you used a primer coat before applying the paint. Otherwise, the paint won't stick well over time. Noce job on the Borla polishing!
