Damn it Invidia and Amazon Seller!! Really!?! < pics included >

That's why a check my parts before I start installations. Sorry for your bad luck and wasted day. Hope this gets worked out for you. Doesn't anyone have quality control

Sorry for your bad luck and wasted day. Hope this gets worked out for you.

Doesn't anyone have quality control anymore?

Hey GaleForce. This is where I learnt my lesson. I should have inspected all the bolt points and pipes closer before removing my exhaust. All I did was lay it out and check for missing parts

Another thing I find annoying with Invidia is that they did not include a "parts list" or a "what's included list" . It would be so much easier to look at a list or picture of the items and count for missing parts. There isn't anything in the box besides the pipes, bolts, flanges, and two stickers.

I know, I hope they analyze my pictures and see which pipe I'm missing and mail me just that. I don't know if the seller is going to do that or have Invidia do that, since I think the packaging screw up is from the manufacture. I didn't tell them my car's on jacks, but I'll tell them that once I get a response from them, hopefully Monday. Thanks for the advice.

I picked up on that by the 6th picture, the flanges are in the same direction. Sorry for the troubles you're having. Maybe you can persuade invidia to give you a set of unresonated test pipes at a discount, or free.

I'm going to see what they say when I get a response, hopefully tomorrow. I wouldn't mind having a second set of exhaust tips (Ti tips also?) .
