Default just got the exhaust tips from LLTEK...why is there sand in the tips?

I noticed when I opened up the box there were sand in and around the tip. When i shook it I can hear sand inside the tips and more sand started to come out. Did they put sand in there and if so, why?

Default i dont' remember i have it or not but i think is ok

also after you install it dont' clean inside the tip
then after about 2 months you will hardly notice it is jsut a slip on tip and will be very nice

Default It's silica, keeps the moisture out.

It's what is in those little packets that your mom told you not to eat.

Didn't your mom tell you to not put anything up your nose?

Sand comes out of the tips when I shake it. Oh, and did you finally get your tips from ups?
