These look pretty good. Anyone have a pic on a car? Do they look more oem than the ebay ones?
Did anyone go for these in the end? Any feedback?

Still would love to see a set of the EBay ones from a few different angles. Anyone?

I too bought a set from "C5Corvettedude" (or something like that name) several years ago. Not exactly the same look as factory "wide oval" tips but a hell of a lot cheaper. Only issue I've had is a SLIGHT "bronzing" after time. This goes away with a quick polish.

And, IMHO, tips can make a very subtle change to exhaust sound. That's my result, yours may vary.

Just bought a set of these. Thought I may as well give them a try considering they're less than $100 shipped. Ill post what I think of them after I receive and install them.

Update - Purchased some exhaust tips from eBay (see previous post) and installed yesterday. The quality is great and they fit perfectly. Advertised as chromed stainless steel, but they appear polished. I would recommend them. Sorry about the bad pic, but it's the only one I took. A big thank you to Emerald, he sent some me some exhaust rings free. A class act.

Sorry to side track a little....

Does anyone know where I could get some exhaust "Shields" for the rear bumper?

My problem is that I have 2 x 2no pipes coming out of the back and they are a little close to the bumper. Wanted to install a stainless steel heat deflector.
