Corsa Hot Tips, they are stainless steel but look like chrome. I got mine from Zip Products for $99, but many companies sell them. They have brackets and come with a drill bit and screws to secure them. Mine are over 2 years old and look great. Very quality part.

This person (Chuck Pelton 248 681-4336 or ChuckPelton@comcast.net)sold me GM tips 18 months ago and I'm still satisfied. Bought some earlier from Ecklers and besides being from China. one bracket broke and I lost one. Found Chuck on E-Bay and they're still on a year and a half later. Here's what they look like..........................
Good Luck

When I had a stock exhaust on my '99, I bought some chrome tips from Mid-America. They were pretty nice and fit well.

Let's not forget about those beautiful Cone tips. Remember, they were the only officially recognized GM 'approved' exhaust tips for the 97-2000 cars. The laser etched C5 logo is awesome...
....And they look good on the car!!!

I had the Corsa Hot Tips. They look great on the car. I now have the Borla Stingers, and the car sounds great too.
Had them on the car for over a year. When I took them off and polished them up, they look brand new.
I GAVE mine to a local forum member.

I have the Corsa tips. The chrome is just enough to set off the rear without spending big $ for a new exhaust. Can't quote a price 'cause they came with the car. I,too, like a quiet exhaust.

Do they stick out past the rear facia? I have seem some that stick out, and I want ones that are slightly recessed.
