Default My Exhaust Plate

Just wanted to share. WHile the many SS or chromey exhaust plates are very nice, I did not want the shine down there. I wanted a black background with the flags showing up. It is not the C5 emblem, but I kinda like it and I'll try it out for awhile:




I made it from one of the license plates from eBay, and cut it with tin snips, and files, then doublestick taped it on. Under $10. Jon
