Default Sidepipe pics !

First off I have to give a big THANK YOU to ROLLING THUNDER for his most generous donation of his Hooker headers and sidepipes to me. If it weren't for his kindness, it'd been a very long time before my car would have ever had them. Thank you so much Dave .

There was a recent post about how an 80-82 vette would look with sidepipes, this sould give an idea since my car has that rear bumper on it.

I hope you all enjoy the pics.







Here's one from the front just for the heck of it ;)

Very nice! The chrome sidepipes look very good against those chrome Torque Thrust's. Just the right amount of chrome. Looks very muscular...

Man... those are UGLY.
You should seriously take those off like ASAP.

And when they are off..... so not to waste... I guess you could GIVE them to me and I will find a good home for them.

And as someone else pointed out, against the chrome wheels, it looks really cool!
