Chalky..........heck, just when i thought it was SAFE to buy a set of BORLA's.........

Now, NO FREAKIN WAY................

I am sickk to death of paying Corvette prices for A M items that require rework BEFORE Install........... :mad

B B PRT's / Corsa TI's...................here I come.............

Whoa...you guys get excited. Do you realize that there has been maybe 5 bad Stinger situations and like 800 satisfied customers. Like the saying goes:

"When something goes GOOD...you tell 2 people. When something goes BAD you tell 10 people"

Just my observation but everyone who has had fitament or alignment problems has put them on themselves. Just a little tip for you do-it-yourselfers. When lining up the tips...place a 1inch by 24 inch board between the bumper and the tips. Have a buddy press the tips up against the board as you tighten the exhaust. When tight...the tips will stay in place in perfect alignment. Happy modding :cheers:

I remember when B&B had some alignment problems with their PRT Quad Ovals (there were several posts here with folks that had a bad right side I believe). So it's not just Borla.
