Default Center mount exhaust?

Hey guys, Im new to the LS1 sence (former LT1 owner), I was looking into getting the center mount exhaust kit but I'm having trouble finding it. I found the tips on ebay but I cant find that rear bumper peice. Does anyone one kno where I can find a whole center mount exhaust kit?

I don't believe SLP makes them anymore. I've been seeing them on Ebay here and there, but the bids are going through the roof. You'll find one, but you'll pay big bucks for it. I've seen the tips alone going for over $300.00 on Ebay. Good luck!

I see the SLP is selling the 90 degree piping but no tips or rear valance. I also found the RK sport rear valance which I dont like at all. guess I'll have to watch ebay for awhile

You will basically have to go through the same ordeal as people who wanted a PS3 on release but couldn't get their hands on one. You have to pay out the *** on ebay, this or another board because you can't order either part new and they will profit on it.

Good luck finding them. I had 25 and sold them all pretty fast. I originally was going to keep one for myself but decided it wouldn't go along with the way I was building my car up so I sold it as well.
I bought all mine from a guy that worked on the line and installed them on the cars. When they stopped making FBodies he bought all the NOS ones they had and I in turn bought them from him.

Yeah I paid $600 shipped. I thought that was a good deal. Even better is that the valance already came in SOM.
