If you still have a factory warranty and somthing does go wrong I suppose they could say that they caused the problem due to back pressure change etc, although I think quiet unlikely.

They are easy enough to swop back to the orignals if necessary as they are only held on by one clamp with a 10mm bolt. Although saying that I did have problems geting the original cans off at first due to them being on for 2 years, but the last time I swopped them around I had no problems.

If you contact CCC direct they can usually deliver the next day unless you want a very special colour.

Just stick a bit of copper grease (?) on the clamp and they'll come off easily the next time...

Please buy them as they change the character of the car totally.
