As far as I'm concerned, if you don't smooth the rear panel in with the quarter panel, it looks cheap. It's obvious that the instert just sits in place of the old tail lights. If it had been smoothed in so that the outline of the original tail light isn't visable, I *may* like it.

If you want vette tail lights get a Vette. I don't see why anyone could f*ck up a perfectly nice third gen Camaro w/ that ****. I don't think there is anything that could make me like the way they look on a Camaro. They look sweet on the Vettes, b/c they were made for the Vettes, not the Camaros.

Whatever floats people's boats man! If you like 'em get 'em. I don't think they're too bad, but I think they need to be frenched in somehow also. I might put some on if they were given to me as a gift or something, but I wouldn't just buy them without having them made to look original. But whatever someone wants to do with their car is their choice.
