I think VHT'd tails with the reverse lights left white would look pretty fat. The tips sitting low is all a by-product of the relationship of the main pipe clamped to the muffler. Loosen it up, rotate the muffler up, and you'll be all good.

Not with the borla, see the muffler is bypassed on teh passangerside exit, so that exit pipe is just a extension of the Y pipe, the driverside is funneld threw the muffler, and out the driverside, you can see it in this video. http://video.ls1tech.com/video/2D09A...0808924239.htm Moving the left up, would move the right down, and vice versa.

I was thinking about AR rebels, but they are a little too much coin for me and I can never find them in the right size.

Maybe if you black out the brake light and add some PONTIAC fill-ins...
