Got a budget Y-pipe in the mail today

I knew budget packages there stuff in bubble wrap but i assumed it would be enough to make it over without being damaged.

I posted some pictures in this gallery:

How bad does it look and should i just keep it or try to exchange for a new one? Budget only warranties their stuff for one year only and i have to pay for shipping. Has anybody recieved a pipe that was in this condition? Thanks.

You need to call and tell them. Send them pictures. When I recieved mine in was wrapped like a ****. No scratches or anything.

That's not lookin too good. When I received mine last year it wasn't damaged at all, but the flex started buzzin a couple months after I installed. Could I have sent it back for that? Well too late now, but not for you. Get a new one and enjoy it

Damn that sucks. Mine was perfect wrap. So wrapped I had trouble taking the bubble wrap off. They are really cool, so I don't think they will give you any hassle about that.
