Does anyone have pictures of these installed? I'm thinking of putting them on my 79.

Click on my web site for a couple of pix of mine. I painted them Black and silver.

What do you think of the covers? Are they of good quality and original looking? Where did you get them?

Here you go. Fiberglass painted to look like originals.

I got them from Eklers. I thought they are very good quality. Chrome is chrome and paint is paint, I don't think you would ever mistake the painted fiberglass for the chrome originals, but them again, neither will your wallet!

I would love to have a set of the original chrome covers but it is hard to justify spending $2,000 on a set of sidepipe covers when I only paid $2,000 for the whole car when I bought it.

I bought mine from Zip. Not sure if the quality is the same or not but there were a lot of pinholes and defects that needed to be fixed before painting.

Here is a pic before painting. The pipes are hard to see, sorry the pic isn't bigger

I installed them on my 74. I had them painted a metalic silver with some flames (I'll get some pics to you this weekend) I'm very happy with them.

I saw the fiberglass covers on a Vette in a shop that I frequent and I thought they looked cheesy, especially after a few years of wear and tear. I would have liked the original metal covers, but the price scared me away. I couldn't justify the cost. So I stuck with rear exhaust.
