Question exhaust pipes

if you have my other thread, "My Latest Project!" you will know that i am doing a saleen se281 supercharged. i was getting some google images and i noticed in a few of the pics that they have rectangular pipes in back. i am looking for a way to make some. i also know that the gen 1 vette has some but i don't know if they are detachable. so the question is: do you know how to make or know where i can buy rectangular pipes for my 2006 Ford Mustang?

or you could make some out of something around your house, like cutting pieces of plastic out and making little rectangles.

Go blue for the exhaust light.

Make sure it isnt too bright...you just want a glow, not a blue spotlight
