Default fujitsubo exhaust

i had my fujitsubo on for about 4 months now and my car is a daily driver. Every time i drive the car and then look out on the rear bumper, there is all this specks of metal. it looks like glitter, i am guessing maybe packaging material? but why would it still be spraying out packaging material still?

is there any way to keep this from happening? cause its getting annoying that everytime wash my car and then drive it theres glitter all over the place.

It may be the packing material in the muffler canister or the resonator. Sometimes, they come out a little when the exhaust is new, but 4 months has been a while. As long as bigger chunks of it aren't coming out, I don't think it's too much of a problem.

Maybe there is a little fairy in your exhaust and whenever you hit vtec she poops a little...

Are you sure it is metal and not the black carbon soot that exhausts typically throw out? Contact the vendor where you bought it...

Good luck!

Mine does the same thing, you should not worry about it. They are very small, like dust.

Here's a completely unrelated picture of a JDM Integra Type-R. Hope your Fujitsubo exhaust works out.
