Anyone else have this issue with the Thermal R&D exhaust? I took my muffler off to clean it and noticed its split on the seam! Both sides are the same...

Yes I have, they offered to have it fixed or replaced but I had to ship the muffler to them at my cost both ways. I am in Canada so it was not worth it for me unfortunately.
I ended up having a buddy weld it up, and it looks better then new now.
I honestly wouldn't buy if I were you, I made a post on FB and there was more then me that had the same issue. It's to bad because its a beautiful exhaust and sounds amazing.
