So what does everyones headers look like?
I've seen people talk up CTI's work non-stop on this forum. How amazing their downpipes are, and how good their header looks... has anyone actually ordered the set? Because mine looks like this....
Needless to say, I want to order from someone else. Anyone have some actual CUSTOMER photos of their header/downpipe combo? I want to compare and decide who to spend my money with.

Return that crap and get a Clear Image header combo, absoultely the best quality for the buck out there, top notch header at a great price, and none of that horrible build quality you have there.
They welded the inside very poorly and didn't blend it, just stuck the flange on the belt sander and shipped it. Very shitty way to do things.

I know everyone talks up and down about CIA, but people did the same with CTI....
I want pictures. Actual pictures, because it seems like people in the cobalt scene jump on the "oh this is an awesome product!" bandwagon without actually owning the damn thing.

I just know from now on that no ones opinions mean **** to me without proof they own the product, because this sadly isn't the first time it's happen. 
I know I'm steering people away from CTI from now on. Go check out OTTP's GB on this combo... so far no ones happy and has the same "quality" i do.
(note: i in no way am blaming OTTP. I'm blaming CTI since this was sent directly FROM CTI's warehouse... or whatever)

i've seen their stuff before this gb and it looked top notch. makes me think they rushed this stuff just to get the orders done and out. kinda sad to be honest.

Yea, it is, because they done pissed off a lot of people
what's even MORE sad is OTTP warned them they'd be getting a bunch of orders... yet they still didn't order parts in advance.
Anywho, i want pictures of headers! Lets see em! damnit... i want my money back from this group buy and to give it to someone else!

once again, opinion means **** to me unless i see customer pictures.
i'm sick of people talking products up without either having live experience with it, or owning it themselves.

We have never seen a vibrant header look anything close to being that bad. Vibrant is very high quality and they have an awesome quality control. Difference is we will not sell junk, or poor quality products on our site. That is why we dont carry any ebay/china made items like tusdo.
I will send you a PM.

Thank you! So far with Aaron's customer service, and my first requested picture, Vibrant may be my next choice. Still waiting on CIA examples.
Heard to many horror stories for ZZP sadly. Damn shame too, as from my experience, they have some of the best customer service.
