Side Exhaust?

So ummm... Got my doors blown off by a 2010 Viper ACR the other day...

It was an amazing thing to watch but in the short amount of time it was beside me the only thing i could not help but to notice was the side exhaust and how it was sticking out of the side skirt and not under it. My question is do they make exhaust like this for C6's and the side skirts to go with it? I want it

I'll bet though, that on the drawing boards at GM, the professional designers have come up with some cool stuff.

While the Viper has always tried to be a Corvette, it just hasn't cut it, in my opinion. Sure they look good and run fast, but, they're not reliable, comfortable, or iconic as the Vette, and they're way overpriced. It's a Vette for a Mopar lover really! The Vette is THE value when it comes to HP for your dollar.
Z06???
Hell, put it up against the ZR1, as Battle of the SuperCars did, the Viper lost quite handily!

I also had it on my C4. SideEffects was the manufacturer, IIRC. Looked awesome and I got tons of compliments.

Were those the ones that really didn't have a muffler, but just depended on constrictions or dimples in the pipes? Pipe inside the side covers looked like a string of sausages strung out end-to-end. Pretty loud but minimal back-pressure.
