Default looking for chrome exaust tips.

I understand that by 2000 the vettes came standard with chrome exhaust tips. mine being a 99 is the bland stainless. what do you guys recommend for chrome exhaust tips? I'm not ready to spend a pile on a new borla exhaust system.. just wondering who makes and what price a set of 4 chrome tips would run and what do you guys recommend the ovalled or square? here's what I came across on ebay...

The 2000 came with the black tips. 2001 and newer came with the chrome tips. Check out Mid-America, Ecklers, West Coast Corvettes for some ideas. I bought a set for my '99 from Mid-America. They held up well and looked good. I did have them spot welded on to prevent them from coming off.

You should also check out the fs section for a used set.
For $350-400 you can get a used TI set, a little more for others.
I got my GHL's used, and it is some of the best money I have spent.
