Re: Has anyone seen these yet ?

i know i have seen a corvette tail light set up on a camaro but i cant say for sure that it was the zr-1 tail light kit from that sight. it looked ok but i dont know if it is worth the time and money.

Yeah, do a search. Plenty of pics around.

Some people love. Lots think it's kinda ghetto whiskey tango. Doesn't matter, everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Most of these corvette taillight threads turn into flame battles and get locked.

I saw this on a Camaro at a car show 2 weekends ago. It looked pretty nice and made me want to get one even more.

Their is a couple of them in m'gallery

i was never to fond of them because the round lights contradicted all of the body lines of the iroc. I've not seen one in person though, so I might feel differently when I do.

Re: Has anyone seen these yet ?

It looks like it came straight out of the early 90's... Back when it was a good idea to put vette tail lights on everything...

Re: Has anyone seen these yet ?

The only problems I see with them are no back-up lights and no side markers..... They could at least, have used the corvette liscence plate recess (Which has the reverse lights)

so true

the guy i bought my IROC from wanted to put those atrocities on it. I hate talking to him now he misses the IROC and says i ruined it by takeing off the ghetto rims and exhaust he had on it....I just remind him that at least it runs under my ownership I never saw it run more then a week at a time for him...lol anyway no sir i dont like them........vette lights IMO belong on Vettes....but to each his own.....

Re: Has anyone seen these yet ?

the only way I see it looking good is if you make it seamless where it meets the quarter panels on the sides and go with a high-rise wing. The lines of the 3 piece camaro spoiler clearly show that the taillight is supposed to wrap around the corner. It'd be interesting to see it done the way I described with side marker lights added in the rear.
