Default Is this a STOCK exhaust

I was looking at it for a while and i dont remember a C5Z ever having tips like this. Then again i look underneath the car and the mufflers look to be stock. What do you guys think.

I figured because it pretty much sounds like a stock Z06 i guess the guy just changed the tips because the tips to me just look different.

Those are stock c5 Z06 tips as well. Ive changed alot of them lol. The stock mufflers are pretty good on the c5 Z's. Lite and flow pretty well, just quiet.

Ok good. Im planning on keeping them and just doing intake mods, tune and some nitrous. I dont know why but im liking the quiet tone. If i can get to 370-375 rwhp and then 100-125 shot of nitrous ill be more then happy. Well the shifter is another issue that will also be changed.

Im sure thats what im exactly thinking. I messed up, i should've just looked at the red Z06 in front of me when i was coming home last night and that would've answered my question right there.
