Just curious, I have the black coated street series Magnaflow's on my car. I had to send the first set back due to the coating flaking off inside the tip. While waiting on the warranty process to go through I ordered a second set and installed them yesterday, today after less then a 100 miles the coating is flaking off of this set too. Magnaflow and it's distributors are working with me so far. Just wondering if anybody else has this problem.
Black Magnaflow street series.

I guess they are not using good paint or materials to withstand the heat coming out of there. That sucks
Yes seeing i was going to get a set now thinking otherwise.

I would spray it with some vht header paint. Withstands temps up to 1800 degrees.
I was thinking along the same lines, except I paid $900+ for these and I expect better.
Looks like a high temp paint was used. Wonder why they did not jet coat them in black? Could try powdercoating it?
There is on on ebay that looks similar for $566 plus shipping right now..
$900 for 2 mufflers...Wow!!!!
You have a right to be underwhelmed. I would be hot as well.
I have seen them powder coated as well.
Try the Borla's......
Borla's have no muffler deletes and Magaflow's do.
Is this an axle back system? I haven't seen the set-up on 13 yet..
This is indeed the axle back system....
heres an idea.... choose your tips and then go to a ****ing muffler shop have them bend a pipe to fit and then add the tips on, BOOM i saved you 700$ thank me later
Still working with Magnaflow on the refund for the black streets, should be no problem. I just ordered the polished street series, probably drive with them for a bit. Then find a good powder coating shop myself.......:beer:
Hey 7ONE7, looks like my ETA on my GT500 will be pushed back to December sometime. Do you plan to change tires or will you just put the car up for the Winter? You know how our "winters" can be, so I'm not sure I will stop driving mine when it gets here.
High temp flat black op. Touch them all up for under 10 dollars. It's not worth pulling them off and going through the warranty process. Especially for such a small issue.
Your letting poor quality control win. If it was a $250 exhaust it's whatever. But it's not. We are paying the "luxury tax" on this stuff, we expect it to be top quality.
