    They look just like the SVO side skirts on the SN95 style mustangs (Plus they say SVO on them :rolleyes:) So I'm pretty sure thats what they came from or were adapted from or from the gone in 60 seconds eleanor mustang. Just measure some skirts from a 94-98 mustang and if they are the same length or a little longer they should work with a few mods. Also if you want to buy the tips that are specific for those skirts you had better get ready to pay some big $$$ for them and the rest of the exhaust as they are very expensive. Here are some ebay links of the parts I'm talking about. :thumbs2:

    Make your own?
    Have an exhaust shop fab up a side exit setup. I am going to be forced to do just that for the sidepipes I dream about every night.

    Yeah but you have to have the correct tips for those side skirts and they are $300 just by themselves.

    I was looking at some similar to these, and figured they can be made to work, a little grinding and shaping, and just recess em in the skirt some.
    It looks doable, and probably something I'm gonna try. I already have a post like this in the cosmetic section.

    Yes you have to adapt the sn95 mustang covers. Not easy. I am doing this on my project. Will cost you around 500.00 just for covers and fabrication labor posiibly more if you farm out the work. I iwll have close to 16 man hours just in the making them fit. That does not inlcude finish work.
