I pretty sure Paragon Corvettes sells them... I tried looking it up in there catalog but it's a 17mb download and I'm in the Minnesota airport right now so that downloads not going to happen.

you check it out on their site. http://www.corvette-paragon.com/

Paragon has them, but the price is beyond obscene...fiberglas sidepipe covers are $300 or so. The insualtors which are less complex moldings are $1200. WTF?!?

Yup. My dad wanted side exhaust on it, I've always wanted side exhaust...since I had to cut away the rusty old mess of the underbody, hack-job true duals, I figure now is as good of a time as any to just do it.
