Yes, the last pic was an older one, peeled off to expose the chrome lips. Here's how it looked previously:

Might just give that a go once I peel it off

OP - looks very unique!
You are correct, I built long tube headers and a 3" straight pipe setup. the tips were as close to stock as I could find.
