I kinda derped on that, didn't take a photo of it
. One photo shows the pleats some, sorry.
Just to be clear -- it didn't break apart like that when you dropped it, right?

Nope. It came apart just like that as it hit the ground.
Judging from the first photo, the pleats look to be very closely spaced.. Who knows about the seam though. They are normally a bit more wider.
Good looking filter for under $4. Won't tear and bypass dirty oil either while used under normal operating conditions.

I got it free with an oil change special, I wasn't planning to run it on my sister's Lexus. Not, sure why the photos disappeared. I didn't do anything with them.

LOl, no, dented the top. Didn't want to put it on the Lexus.

I know right. Why couldn't they add an extra pleat or two? But, they worked great desluging the Lexus's engine. Planning to run toughguards from now on. It has a Fram HM fitler on it right now. Had major misfire issues and a torn valve cover gasket. Then I am running a Bosch D+ on it.
