Default Which Corsa tips? Pics would help!

OK, getting things in line to do the cat back. Have definitely decided on Corsa Indy Pace Car (with X-Pipe). What I can't decide on is Classic vs. Pro Series tips.

Here's the dilemma - all the pics of the tips online at Corsa, Mid America, etc., are very poor.

Do you guys that have these systems have rear end pics you could post? Would really help. I am keeping her pretty stock in appearance other than what I have already done.

Here are a couple of shots of her "butt":



Thanx!

I don't have any good pics, but you really want the pro tips.

I think the 3.5" Pro tips are among the best looking made for the C5...



I don't have any side angle pics, sorry....

The Corsa Pro Series tips and the Corsa Tigershark tips are identical, just the spacing is different.

Between the Classic Corsa tips and the Pro Corsa tips, there is no question.

The PRO tips are about the nicest looking tip out there in my opinion.

It even appears that GM has designed the OEM C6 tips after them...

Here are my TigerSharks, I love them, only issue as you can see, after I had them put on , I had to take them back to be re-alligned (After this pic). Now, they are perfect, and I love the sound.

Is that definate the pro series tips and the tiger shark tips are exactly the same.
Why is it then there is so much price difference if it is only the spacing??

Like both the Pro Series and Tiger, but got the Indy Pace Pro and think now i like them better, still show the c5 plate which i like....got them for the looks as much as anything and not disappointed. The sound is great and no resonance cruising. Get yourself some 3D Reflective Brake light Red Corvette letters for the rear. You will love them...got mine at Eckers....See pic of them. I took off the tail light louvers, looks cleaner.
