This does look bend to me. What did the box look like when you received it g96818?

What did UPS do, did they even bother to land the plane when they delivered the box to Hawaii, or did they just open the door at 10000ft and shove the box out?

At least it had a single wrapping of bubble wrap and a lot of open air space within the box to cushion the impact...

this was the only real noticeable damage to the box


the packing looked ok at first




but that passenger side flange on the muffler is right next to the hole and is probably what caused it to puncture the box and that one is really bent, notice the broken single piece of cardboard that is supposed to support it, the mid-pipe above it, and the x-pipe
