+1 there is nothing you can do to stop it and those pipes must be defective, bad prep or bad chromeing proccess, either way with a big company like that you should be able to get a new set at no cost, just write them a nice email telling them how much you love the company and how great they are and how you want some non-fualty **** and you shout be good

+2.... You have a one year warranty on those pipes. They may ask you to take a digital picture and e-mail it. Also, they can send you a new part of the exhaust and when you recieve it you then mail your part back. They will only charge you if they feel it is not their fault. Linnea is in charge of warranty, she sends out the company e-mail. I found a technical guy to be more helpful. Below is what they sent me.
