Default Exhaust Plate

hello everyone....i was out driving and a black corvette coupe (c5) pulled infront of me....i was just looking at the rear....it had a really nice sounding exhaust...dinky looking tips...and the middle looked like it was missing something and the tips weren't really straight...looked horrible but sounded great ....so when i got back to work and saw my vert...the middle does look like its missing something but still looked a lot better then his....so now im thinking about getting a exhaust plate....i've seen chrome ones never seen one like this before...

my vert is also yellow so which should i go with....YELLOW or CHROME???????

I say, go with yellow 'cuz there is no chrome anywhere except the tips and I'm partial to yellow.

BTW, where do you get the one pictured? I like it!

I believe that the Corvette Garage has a sale going on now.
Chrome C5 Exhaust Plate $99.00

Don't know if they have any in yellow, give 'em a call.
