Hi ive got a peco 4" jap style stainless backbox on my corsa b sport which has been on for about 8-9 months and cost me £135 from motorworld and it is already rusting? stop me if im wrong but stainless steel aint supposed to rust? ive got the receipt so will they just replace it for me or what? thats assuming they still make them, what make and type would be best if i do need to choose a different one? i espcially want one that will live up to the name stainless steel and never rust!
