Frequently Asked Questions

Will these headers fit my current exhaust system?

Shorty headers are designed to work with most aftermarket and OEM exhaust setups, but check your specific exhaust diameter and routing before ordering. Some high-flow mufflers or catback systems may require minor clearance verification.

Do I need new gaskets when installing these?

Factory gaskets can often be reused if they're in good condition, but new header gaskets are always the safer choice to prevent exhaust leaks. Grab a set before installation day.

Can I paint these after install?

Stainless steel doesn't require paint and resists heat discoloration naturally. If you want a different finish, let them cure for 50+ engine hours first, then use high-temp ceramic coating rated for stainless.

K2 Industries & OUR OWN FAQ's

How do I check fitment?

Check the listing for your year, make, model, trim and engine. Body style, build date and factory options can matter. If the listing is unclear, send FI Performance your vehicle details and the product link or SKU before ordering.

What comes with this part?

Check the product description for quantities, hardware and accessories. Photos may show the part installed with other components. Ask us if you need to confirm whether a part is sold individually, as a pair or as a kit.

Will I need extra parts or modifications?

That depends on the part and your setup. Check for adapters, wiring, coding, tuning, trimming or additional hardware before booking installation. If you already have aftermarket parts, tell us what’s installed.

What should I check for headlights or tail lights?

Match your factory lighting type, connector and body style. Halogen, HID and LED assemblies can differ even on the same model. Check pre-facelift versus facelift fitment and features such as adaptive lights or leveling.

Should I have a shop install it?

We recommend a qualified installer for wiring, engine, brake and suspension work. Inspect the part and confirm fitment before cutting, drilling, painting or modifying anything.

When will my order ship?

Availability and lead time vary by item. If you’re working around a shop appointment or event, contact FI Performance for a current estimate before ordering.

How do returns and warranty claims work?

Contact FI Performance with your order number before sending anything back. Eligibility depends on the item, its condition and the applicable policy. If there’s damage or a defect, keep the packaging and send photos of the part, label and issue.

Is this part intended for street use?

Check the listing for any use restrictions and confirm the requirements where you drive. If you need a specific approval or certification, ask us to verify it for the exact part number before ordering.

What payment methods do you accept?

How do I know if I have factory Xenon lighting?

Factory Xenon lights commonly have a blue-tinted output and a short warm-up period. Check your owner's manual or send FI Performance your vehicle details so we can help confirm your factory lighting type.

What is the difference between Halogen, HID and LED lighting?

Halogen lighting is the traditional, affordable option. HID lighting typically provides greater brightness, while LED lighting is energy-efficient and long-lasting. FI Performance can help you select the correct option for your vehicle.

How do I prevent lighting condensation?

Condensation can occur as temperatures change. Lighting assemblies are designed to minimize it; contact FI Performance for guidance if you see persistent condensation or have product-specific questions.
