Not bad since Eklers shows them at $260-$400 each.
How were they on the inside radius where most of the original ones from the factory barely covered the copper let alone had any chrome? Inside radii are hard to plate w/o special electrodes but a guy here in KC redid mine and looked super. Even got some plating inside the bumper where it used to be just rust. Wished I could find someone that could do the rear license bezel that good.

Not sure about blknblu68's but the only place mine attached was on the heads and at the rear end of the side tube behind the turnout. Same keyhole slot in the bottom of the frame used by the factory side exhaust system. I used the same rubber cushions there as the factory setup. The side tube has a pseudo clamp at the front end that tightens to the collector.

That's correct if you are referring to the silver piece on the top of the rocker panel. Now the bottom edge of the black fiberglass piece ('68 model year only) will have to be trimmed up front over where the pipes come out from under the frame which is why I used the two piece '68 version instead of my original one piece aluminum ones.
