I love the Corsa tips... but $300 is just way too much. Here are my chrome Mecham tips which I also love.

Ditto I have a Corsa System on my Camaro and love how the Premium tips look. Definately go with Stainless or they will be all rusted up in a few years.

Chrome will rust only if you dont take care of them. Sure, dont clean them, dont ever polish them, then they'll rust.

I like the Corsa tips also, but I prefer the Pro-Series 4.0 Tips. I haven't been able to find these for purchase though :-(
