Nope. I don't have any rust on mine. I notice the baffles get rusty though. Do you have the baffles installed? If so could be from them?

to be honest i don't even know. baffles in or out, what is the sound difference. i thnk theyre in though. it's very loud. like i duno if itts even rust... maybe they get so hot the paint where it says bassani is melting?? theres no other mark on the pipes but right on the letters.

hmm...not sure if your '98 setup is different than mine. The baffles are inside the tips of the exhaust and it's louder with them out, by a good margin actually.
I haven't had a chance to look at mine to see where you're talking about. I'll have to take a look and see.

if the baffles are out, is there a performance difference? can i see them? my car is loud now... so it can get louder? i dunno if i even wanna do that.

yea check the tips where it says bassani.. it's weird. like an orangish brown on the letters.. i don't get it.
