Hey guys!

So I just noticed that my exhaust pipes are rusting very quickly and I've only had the car for about 6 months. Do your cars exhaust look like this? Here's the pic:

Please let me know if this is normal or not! It only snowed a couple times, maybe the road salt stuck to it and went crazy?!
 
Yeah that's definately normal. Mine is the same way.

Actually most cars I've seen being delivered brand spanking new directly off the delivery truck at the dealership already have rust on the pipes and differentials and what not. As long as it's not on the body your good.
 
No problem.

One thing I like to do though is at the end of every winter I get up under the car and use a mild degreaser and spray and wipe everything down by hand. Don't know how long it helps in the long run but it puts my mind at ease knowing the underside is nice and clean. The instruction manual actually recommends doing this yearly to insure the actual frame underneath stays rust free.
 
Yea my whole exhaust pipes are rusted completely up to the nuts and bolts so in my head I say get ark exhaust :P

I noticed recently that I have a bit of rust on the framing. Anything that can be done to put it to sleep?
