      Header condition question

      So I received my Heddman Elite coated headers last night. They look great except for one tube had a ding and some of the coating is scatched. This technically is covered under the warranty, should I send them back or just deal since they will prob get dinged and scrapped in the car anyways?

      I'd send 'em back. You're right, they are probably going to get dinged during install, but those are usually concealed against the block or suspension. This current damage might be out in plain sight, and trust me, after you get them in, you'll look at that spot for the rest of your life thinking "I should have had that fixed!" Once they're in, they're yours.

      or maybe snap some pics and send to the seller. maybe you can get a discount or so. if not you still can send them back.

      Contact the seller and see where the conversation goes(who knows, they might take them back without much hassle)...I agree, those dings are out in plain sight.
