Do a forum search for Patriot pipes. They are the cheapest way to go. Otherwise, many major vendors dealing with C3 parts have them, from about $700 for factory style w/fiberglass covers all the way up to about 3 grand for the "deeluxe" systems.

What are you looking for? Hooker or other style?

This type?

I have this set that I recently removed, less than 500 miles on it. I'll sell it for $500 plus shipping if you are interested. PM me if you are interested.

JEGS has some patriot side pipes that will work on your vette in various lengths they have 50" 60" and 70" lengths and the most expensive set is $219 dollars -shipping they are chrome and have the heat sheilds I'm gonna go with the 60" set on my vette. They also have some lake style pipes I have saw being run on the vette and I think they are reasonably priced as well.
Hope this info helps.

do you want looks or performance.
i thought that those factory style sidepipes were horrible in the performance dept.

I just like the looks of it.
Plus I have to replace a rocker panel along the bottom of my vette, so there goes 300.00 to get a pair of them, so I figured why not just get side pipes with covers, that way I dont have to worry about the rocker panel, plus I get some cool looking side pipes
