(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score COBB's packing of their catback was pretty bad too. Couple of zip ties and loose cardboard holding things down. Same thin styrofoam. Big dent in the resonator and an easily noticeable bent exhaust tip along with random dings and scratches...and I'm pretty sure a hanger mount was welded upside down. Is this a trend with these guys or am I just lucky?

| Not Ranked : 0 score I am not sure what you're asking: A) Would bad packing be what damaged the mount? Well that and incompetent handling by Americas finest USPS... There isn't enough storage on this forums servers to list all the times they have ruined my day one way or another... but that's for a different time. B) Would the ding pictured damaged the mounts ability to do mount work? Nope sure wont... Have a girlfriend/wife, or are you a girl? File it smooth and get some black nail polish and cover it up, you'll never notice....

| Not Ranked : 0 score Yeah I would not worry about it. If it bothers you could open a claim I guess but IMO its not worth it. I would just touch it up but it is your money.

If it's more than an intake upgrade, I'm a noob and doing this stuff for the first time. If the mount's seals can take a hit then I'm not too worried.
You can't get most of these parts locally. They're a few hundred miles away. I've never ordered from JBR. I have ordered from COBB though, this is the first time I've seen that kind of packing job from them.
