Default 79 Muffler Hanger Brackets

Intro: I hate rust.

My Muffler Hanger brackets look fairly different than move I've been able to find online, I finally found some that look like mine, but they're only available in a full kit that includes the muffler U-bolts and I've already ordered stainless U bolts.

Does anyone know if these are yet another Corvette-specific part, or is this style hanger available for other cars too (I'll have way more selection to try to find just the hangar bracket and rubber piece if they're available on more than just 1978-1982 Vettes...)? https://cdn3.volusion.com/ekutc.vrls...os/29360-2.jpg

I think unless anyone has a good take-off or NOS for sale, I'm probably just going to cleanup the ones I have and paint them and put them back on.

It looks like they're only available in a KIT for $40-$50 and includes parts I don't need.

Worth the cleanup and repaint time for $40-$50 for sure. I figured these things would be $20... #CorvetteTax

What's the finish on those and who is the vendor? They actually look pretty good.
