Polished stainless 3/16 inch with V badge.......3 pics, very tough to take pics because it's like a mirror. Slips in over exhaust tips, once past the bumper, you raise it up, spread the pipes a touch and it slips into a groove behind the exhaust tips and locks in without any screws, bolts, or adhesive. I would guess at about 4 lbs.:seeya

How many inches do you have between the exhaust pipes right behind the tips and I can tell you if it will fit. If it's not the same we can adjust the size and have one made to order. Just like a suit. http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_27_9.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZS)

Red V,
I'm sure he would want to dress up the exhaust area, most Corvette owners have a similiar plate.
OK, Your sitting on the ground in front of the exhaust. Hold the plate flat with the fat part toward the exhaust. Gently slip it over the exhaust tips and as you get near the exhaust pipes slip the fat part down and it drops right into a slot behind the exhaust tips. Push the exhaust tips apart very gently and it nestles into the slot standing straight up. This is a do it yourself thing, even for your dad.
I have their number and would share it, even though it's my design.
They want $240 plus shipping and handling and you would have to go to your local Cadillac dealer to buy the V badge ($45) for the center of the plate. I'm going to take a few more pics and post them When I get a chance. BTW, it's mirror polished, looks like a million bucks

Gee, you mean I missed my calling
I did start a sub shop and we really did well, then I sold it for big bucks. http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/7/7_4_3.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZS) Should have stayed in the business, even big bucks disappear fast
