export camaro tail-light mod?

hey ive seen the z28-e tail lights. i like how the amber and red portions of the light are reversed. red is in the middle. anyway the z28-e tail lights were only offered in the single line style. i was wonderin if there is anyway i could make my grid tails look like the z28-e tails. pretty much i wanna reverse the red and amber. any ideas how to go about doin this?

i thought "euro tail lights" refered to those "alteza" lights, i was about to flame the hell outa sombody. got my fist all tight and everything. "sorry ladies" ::kisses fists::

anyway, back to topic: that looks pretty cool. i think maybe the only way is to get them from a european car. or perhaps get them made for you at a plastics shop. good luck.

I think the Euro's do typically refer to altezza style. In this case it's the actual GM export lights.


......but there wouldn't have been any reason to FLAME either way We're all friends aren't we?

For the record, that pic that Chevy Ken posted is the FIRST grid style export light I've ever seen.
