Man, you really should use some more punctuation. Your post was a bitch to read through.. But anyway..

There's actually 4 types. The grids, the black stripe, the gold stripe, and the no stripe (has a groove for a stripe, but it's colored like the rest of the taillight).

The grid style came on Z28s of all years, and on all 90-92 models. The gold striped taillights came on Berlinettas (sometimes?! I've seen all kinds; but you never know this far down the line what's been replaced!)
