Side Pipe Installation

[toolman0114]

I just put a set of side pipes, with fiberglass covers, on my 74 vette. Just wondering if anyone else has done this and what it looks like, they look good, but I can see the pipe below the bottom of the cover, is this normal? or should threy tuck completely into the fiberglass cover?
thanx...

Have a 79 with side pipes, covers painted to match body color. I do not see the pipes at all. Bougth it that way.

I bought my '71 in about early '83 . It had the GM 'glass pipes. They were beat so I ordered new from a dealer. I got # 219 or so in the last batch of 519 cover pairs that GM made , according to the dealer. The exhaust pipes show from under the covers , but its still a lot cooler in the summer .

I was told if you use the GM pipes they will show, but wanted to make sure, just doesn't look right. I'll post a pic in a on Monday.
