I bought a exhaust complete from Liquid5soul on this forum. Its an FMF Fatty with a Powercore2 ..
The thing is I asked him 100x (no sh*t) IF THERE WAS ANYTHING wrong with it! Damages, bumps, etc etc. I even asked of pictures of every angle but he only sent me pictures of the exhaust system RIGHT so you cant see the damages. . . . So it looked like it was ok! Its in great condition, he said.. Well .. I got it today after a HELL in shipping.. 21 days from US to EUROPE because customs took it and demanded even more money! but thats another story..
The rear silencer is totally scratched because it has been sanded/? (its aluminum!!! you polish not sand!
There is a motherf**ker patch welded on the pipe to the rear.. I assume it covers a big hole!
I COULD perhaps live with theese things.. but now comes the bomb!
Because Liquid5Soul just threw the 2 pieces of pipe into a carbboard box without ANY packing ATALL!!!!! NOT EVEN A SINGLE newspaper was wrapped around!!!!! And i could hear them bangin together, metal sound coming from the package before i opened it!!! NOW WHO THE HELL packs something like that from USA to EUROPE!!!!!!!! NO packing or protection AT ALL! Thats just freakin´ insane!
The headpipe has 2 ugly "bumps" (is that the english term?) something has hit into it-.. AND THAT IS WHAT I Wanna fix IF possilbe! Its RIGHT where people watch (where the FMF FATTY logo are) ...
I am SO disappointed by this hole case! .. and I dont know how I could live with myself if I where the one shipping and exhaust system to one of you guys in the States by just throwing it into a box and put some tape on..
Is it possible at all to fix "bumps" in head pipe?! If yes, what do i need and how to do it?
(I once saw in the US show - American Hotrod where in the bodyshop they fix hoods and bumps by welding on a stick? on the bump and then like "hammer" it out by pulling this thing out that has a "stopper" a some inches out.. its like hammering only this is pulling .. ) Very hard to explain!
PLEASE help!
Regards the frustrated exhaust owner.. :-(
