^^ I was same way on the finish.. haha but I would see him doing the same finish on these as the old ones, but im wrapping my mani anyways so doesnt really matter to me. I also ordered the mani and dp since this will be a limited thing. Dont really have the money but dang these are so hard to come by used let alone new.. I like looks of old style better but i see the purpose for log style. More flow and much easier to make at that. Im excited and hope for a quick turn around time, even though i gotta wait on full exhaust and tune before installing.. haha
