I like the carbon fiber ones. I've heard from some guys at camaroz28.com appearance section they leak and are very low quality. I've never seen them in person so you might want to check there.

I've got the clear ones on my silver z28. I don't have any problems with leaking on mine. I'm thinking about selling them if you are interested. Pics are in the sig. I'm gonna go in a different direction with some new tailights I've found. Let me know if you're interested.

All i got to say about altezza is <img border="0" alt="[barf]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" /> and anyother cheap taillight upgrade developers. So IMO fellow F-body owners "JUST SAY NO TO ALTEZZA"

So are you calling the euro tail lights like steve2000ss has rice to? They come from Japan or somewhere over there. Personally, I don't like them to much but thats just my opinion. I'm not going to say his car is ugly just cause I don't like the tail lights though.

i like them WAY more than the stockies
i wish i was one of the lucky few that bought a set before the parts-WH0RES bought all of them for profit
i wonder if anyone could find out the numbers on the rear bumpers for Europe-exported Camaros?
they look kinda funky with the big marker lights, but i would be very different <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

They actually look just like US light.. just different color pattern.. Actually I think this thread was originally about the aftermarket clear lights that are sold by RK Sport and such.. These are GM parts <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

european spec or export lights, are the "candy corn" lights pictured above. They look great.

The altezza'a are not that good looking on the f-body, saw them on a NBM Z the other day, and almost puked.
