Those are real F50 parts direct from Ferrari. I actually thought that they'd be more expensive.

I talked to them today as well, but they don't do the F50 Kit.
I looked on Kitcars.com and there was one complete F50 Kit on there, looked awesome but was selling for $100,000.00.
I'll do some more research, but I think that the kit builders probably use some real parts on the kits to make it easier to aquire parts.

I think that looks so cool. That is funny about the dream Zepher. I have dreams about my car all the time, except my car never looks different, what could this mean? Anyways, what about using Corvette lights from the 70's or Early 2nd gen Camaro lights. I think that would look great as well.

I'll check those ones out as well.
I just like the Ferrari ones since the reverse and turn lights are inside the brake lights. Makes for an easier and more exotic install.

The lights would give the rear a cleaner look because it solves the issues with having the brake lights and turn signals integrated in just 4 lights. Simple and Sweet. I wonder how much clearance there would be to work with.
plenty of cars had round tails with the white centers..domestic cars. check into early thirdgen vettes(69-mid 70ish) i know some of those had the white centers, and would cost much less than Ferarri

Those lights are huge though. Too big for me.

See if you can post some tail light pictures of some of the cars mentioned. I am always looking for suggestions.

Zepher, I searched around on the internet for some good Corvette tail light pictures but I didn't find too many. Here are the two best ones I found.

(obviously) a C3

This picture is of a just the lens, which is for sale on ebay for $10, from a different year 'Vette. I believe it's a 1st or 2nd gen, but it's not a 3rd gen.
I think the C3 lights would look sweet!
