DT Long tubes and RUST!!!!!

In my case I was in the initial group buy when the headers were being developed. So, its been a good year by now so they warranty is out. I believe the warranty is about 1 year.

Here some photos of my headers. I was not aware how rusted they are until I saw this thread and took a look.
