when you said "IN" a camaro i thought forsure you were going to have a picture of corvette taillights in the back seat of your car



i would really rather see someone put effort into the led light bar in the crease between the bumper and berger panel. light chop the bottom half inch off the berger then shape the long plastic led light bar to form with the *** of the car

you know kind of like the kits they have for trucks

They look cool lit up at night, but in the day time when you can see everything, I don't think it sits right. Especially with the lines from the hatch, where the old tailights followed.

I seen the car in person last night he and does quality work over 35 hrs in custom work. Perfect fit and finish and the pictures don't help the product, it looks alot better in person. A+ for being creative I just don't think its for everyone. He also has an Ebay store and does quality work with under-hood chrome and mirrors with turn signals. If you like the tailights make an offer. he's a good guy just trying to be different.
