Default Exhaust for a 1990 C4

I have a good friend that is trying to decide on which exhaust to get for her 1990 corvette. She wants one that has a nice deep sound, but one that will fit in just like the original ones do now. She was thinking of polished stainless, but also said she could go with a nice black set. Could somebody that has had their mufflers changed place some pictures in here for her to see . Thanks everybody

Personally i think corsa look the best, but if she wants a deep sound try borla or magnaflow

on my 90, i installed a magnaflow front y-pipe (w/freeflow precats) a magnaflow freeflow main cat, and the corsa system for the cat-back portion. the system had no noticable resonance or drown. excellent fit and finish on the corsas, some minor fitment issues on the magnaflow components, but no show stoppers. sound, not so loud as to draw too much attention, but IMO, a great, healthy sounding, set of pipes. i know some people want super loud pipes, but for me, the older i get, the less i need that...

My old ninety with Corvette central Magnaflows with Lt tips and rear y cross over.

I was always going to add the front y no cats and free flow main cat but sold it first. It would have passed inspection w/o the front cats here. It looked better than in this picture
