If i sell my car and get into another camaro, i'll be doing a set up like 6LE's car posted above, but they'll be tinted black to completely blend when the lights are off. And they wont be purposeless lights, they will be the drl/turn signals, which i plan to shave from the bumper for a cleaner look. like what whistler did with his old car, but i dont think he has any turn signals up front any more, atleast none that i could see on his cardomain.

This is one of the things i've been planning for a long time now, and now that i mentioned it i'm sure someone else will beat me to it and i'll be pissed. but hell, i'm not sure if i'm gonna even sell my car anymore

I really don't like fog lights on Camaros in any place but the stock location, anything else looks tacky IMO.

i believe they only did that to the yellow vette cause they race the car at night sometimes and the more light while racing im sure is better, not really for the appearence.

Those lights on that C5.r are not there for looks . They are there for enhanced vision at night when its in a 24 hour race .

On a street Camaro it would be pretty silly looking .
