It is kind of BS that you got your stuff before me btw. (I am happy for you... just annoyed since I am the first one to have the issue.)

Can you take a pic of what they are supposed to look like?

I got my new system today and installed it. These had the correct holes in them. And my garage smells like stinky new exhaust again. lol

Still never got any PMs though.

I do have two systems all boxed up.

Lol Did it stop the annoying noise from the exhaust and did your car throw any CEL codes.

Certainly better. I thought I heard the 'fluttering' type noise once but it may be my imagination. No CELs. Car feels much more seamless going between v8 and v4 too.
