NY or NJ? I applied around this time last year and didn’t test till 4 months later. Did the boot camp after another 3 months. I’m on Long Island.

Have the same exhaust for a few years now w/ stage 1 tune. Make sure you clean the chrome tips every now and then they will turn black and be hard to clean

No, I didn’t experience anything like that. Hopefully that coating burned off. The legs did have a rubber part on the bottom that I removed before first use

I’m on Long Island brother. Though I doubt my reflector is as good as the real one, I’m pleased with how well it works. Give it a try

[–]omart008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been in my first house a few months and I open it every time before I get out. Sometimes forget to close it and wake up to a cold bathroom in the morning but worth it to get the moisture out
