Default would this lookmodd with sidepipes?

The easiest exhaust solution for my project 75 would be a set of open hooker sidepipes. I'm just not sure if they would look right on the car the way it is set up. What do you think.

zoomies, I'm not sure I could get away with those on the street. The wheels are weld ProStar 15 x 14 rear with a 4 1/2" backspace using the MT sportsman 31 inch diameter tires. running the front are Weld Prostar 15 x 3.5 with MT frontrunners. I am using an S&W 4 link setup. a 38 inch long narrowed ford 9 inch housing and strang SS 31 spline axles that are 2.5 inches spaced from axle flange to hub
