how do i prevent rust from apexi ws midpipe?

[Maple50175]

I have the APEXI WoRLD SPORT EXHAUST and ive had it installed for about 2 weeks. I just got in from doing a 2am photoshoot of my car and i notice that my midpipe where the resonator is connected is all starting to rust :-/ How can i prevent this? I mean 2 freakin weeks and it's already starting to rust. I hate NE dammit.

Any tips? I want to keep this exahust in good shape as long as possible. I havnt scraped it once so that's no the problem. its at the welds.....

get all the rust off, then paint it wth high temp paint. later.

Try getting some Weld Thru Primer at a body shop supply store... Anything with enough Zinc should do the trick...

Next time buy stainless steel...for now, wire brush and high temp paint.

Mine looks perfect after over a year in the same conditions. Are you sure its rust?

[wrichards2005]

WTF why didn't you buy stainless in NE?.. It should be for all that money. But I've heard that high temps can cause the exhaust to change color, maybe that could be the culprit...

powder coat it black then you won't see the rust

Better still paint it brown, even less chance of seeing it
