Muffler Question

Is there really any difference between these two mufflers?...
http://www.magnaflow.com/02product/s...ne=main&id=463
http://www.magnaflow.com/02product/s...ne=main&id=629

...or is it just appearance? Which one would you recommend? And which tip would look good with this muffler? Thanks for the advice!

Only difference is the finish.

That's what I figured, but would one of the finishes be better than the other one? Like, would one of them look better than the other one would in 5 years?

depends on where you live and what driving you did and how well you kept it clean.

Well, I live in Spokane, WA, I would do mostly normal driving, (it might see some track time), and I would probably keep it pretty clean. They don't toss down any salt during the winter...oh yeah, I might be moving to San Diego by June or July, though.

Hows things in Spookaloo? ( Spokane nick name.) Tacoma native here. Looks like the finish and price are the only differences. Don't mufflers rust from the inside out anyway?

Hmmm...I'm not so sure...I think the polished one would look a little better, though.

here's a tip: you can polish the satin version as well.

Well, I did some more searching, and one of the sites on magnaflow.com offered the polished one for about $110 shipped. So I went with that one. That's less then I thought I was going to pay for the satin one originally.
