Stain on Remus exhaust carbon tip
Hello,
I have noticed this stain on one of my exhaust tips. The age old universal saliva-kleen did not fix it. Anyone knows what this is ? Oxydation, clear peeling off ? Remus asks a pretty penny for these tips so I want to explore my options prior to buying a new one. Many thanks !

Thanks for the replies. I sent the pics to Remus in Austria, not hoping for much as I bought the exhaust over two years ago.
I had a reply from the swiss importer within 12 hours... They sent me 4 brand new tips...they use a new logo and they did not want me running around with mismatched pipes. They even paid for the return shipping for the old tips, they want to check them at the factory. Now that is customer service ! Bravo to Remus for stepping up and standing behind their product !!!

What's also up with the quality of the new Remus logo on the tips the tips though? Not sure if it's the picture quality but it doesn't appear to be finished off well? I've never been a fan of the fox and Remus wording on the tips so i reckon that's an improvement aesthetic wise. |

The logos are perfect, it is the picture that doesn't get uploaded properly. I actually really like the contrast between the dark pipes and the white lettering.
