MRBP Exhaust - does this look ok?

This is how my exhaust looked when it arrived. Does this look normal?

Hi Vince,
I'm gonna be posting a review of this exhaust as well. The tips are wrapped in those white boxes. The shipping box left much to be desired, mine was the same, but no damage no dents. The tips were perfect.

I know people who have had good luck with MBRP, but I had one of their systems on my truck and I hated it. Poorly designed, poorly made materials, and it was way too loud. And, yeah, it pretty much looked like that in the box, but the tips were in boxes like that and weren't damaged.

Wow, that is embarrassing. Send that pic to them and let them know they should embarrassed to send out a product like that.
Lots of joints to leak.

I mean its just metal piping that you'll never see. As long as nothing is damaged and the tips look fine, it would be cool with me. Granted its not the nicest packing job, that's for sure.

I agree,

Mine was shipped similarly, but tips are good. Mine is the 409 stainless version, not polished and as long as there were no dents/dings, which there were not, I'm good. Lethal had an issue with another company's exhaust having the ends being dinged upon shipment, that shipping box had some paper type wrapping, but still not what one would expect. I agree that MBRP needs to remedy this though, to avoid issues.
