discolored cat...problem?

I put a new cat on about 1 month ago, and after that I had my injectors cleaned and tune up done.
I checked the cat today and it's discolored (almost purple)
here's the picture.
everything runs fine.
problem?
it's a magnaflow free-flow cat.
thanks

Hey taikowaza

Thats normal!! Its the heat that causes the dis-colouring!!

The same thing happened to my TRD Headers!! And I even get that as far as my Stainless Exhuast tips!!
