Default Correct looking exhaust tips 70-72 Corvette

Questions for C3 Corvette Gurus.

Thinking about Tony's Kustom Headers and sidepipes for my 70 LT-1.

Also considering going back with an original style exhaust system, sans smog. I have the correct exhaust manifolds, but NOTHING else in the exhaust is correct. Checked with Eric Gardner (site sponsor) about a correct looking exhaust system to include the swaged ends on the downpipes.

Gardner has everything EXCEPT exhaust tips. He said he was not aware of ANY correct aftermarket tips available.

Apparently the originals are chromed steel. Repops are stainless, which will obviously last longer.

1. Does ANYONE make the correct tips?
2. If not, does anyone make correct LOOKING tips.
3. If I go with sidepipes, what do I do with the two cutouts in the rear panel? Bill S, what did you do? Seems it would look a bit weird with the unused cutouts.
