Bought quite a bit of 3600,3614,8a fram FPS from rock auto closeout this month all arrived clean not dented and no rust present except for these two filters. The boxes were taped back together and I imagine damage happened before rock auto got them. The leaf springs were very flattened from the damage to the dome

So I cut them open to see if inside is clean and rust free and they look fine. Will probably order more as for under 5$ for this quality of a filter is nice

Wire backed?
Yes zeeosix is right these are the pink media with wire backing. All FPS filters are the best version of the ultra and got stopped being made before ultra quality was cheapened to what we can get now

FYI these filters are going to be made around 2013/2014 so always a gamble if they'll be in usable shape. I got lucky and they shipped from same warehouse as some of my other items and out of 20 I bought only these two were bad so good gamble on my end
 
Thanks for sacrificing yours. Now I feel confident in using mine. I just got two FPS3600s that look in pretty good condition for their age. Date code on mine suggests they were both manufactured in late 2013. I’m definitely gonna run them. Will post a picture of them on this forum later on or tomorrow
