New Cat Back

Alright....so I just installed my brand new Cat Back exhaust and went for a nice ride.....when I got back home and backed in, I was overcome with a smell that smelled like burning plastic (or some other synthetic material). Is this normal or am I melting something on my car???

BTW, I reccomend www.topendmotorsports.com to anyone. I ordered my exhaust last friday morning and it came in yesterday (tuesday), and best yet, shipping was free. I just can't believe how good the service was. I was expecting maybe a week or more, as I was quoted by other places, but they really got it to me fast, and it was a great deal.

Yes, it's a Magnaflow direct bolt on and is SS. The system is absolutely awesome. Quality part I tell you. I'm going to post some pictures of it on a new thread in the next few days (not enough pictures out there of it). It's absolutely beautiful and the sound is fantastic.
