oh yeah. thats also how it's setup lol. the pipe slides into the muffler and then you tighten down the muffler pipe over the "midpipe" pipe.. its hard to explain. but it came with a similar clamp that broke while tightening it down, so i just bought two of these to assure no leaks

Soap and water, APC, simple green is readily available, however only use that diluted in water and out of a spray bottle on areas that soap and water won't cut it, and do not let it sit too long don't want to damage.... Then Aerospace 303 te rubber and plastic when done

That looks great!! You brushed that paint on? Did you sand the dimples off to get it so smooth? And the carbon fiber wrap looks good too
