Headlights/Taillights If I would like to completely replace the headlights, turn signals, and tail lights (02 Z/28) preferably to smoked or black, on my car what seems to be a good combo of brands? I would like to have Halo/Angel Eye headlights, I would like to replace the covers for the turn signals to be darker and maybe some LED taillights that are also smoked/black. Also, are there any headlights of the aforementioned type that can do different colors for show purposes? I've looked on different sites, and I've seen what alot of members have done on here I'm just terrible at judging quality and worth.
I went the cheap route. I got the whistler depot headlights and blacked out front side markers from Amazon. Then did the Lamin-x smoked film for the tail lights, brake light, and rear side markers

Tail lights:
I have good avs tail light covers, had them for 18 years (holy **** I'm old) and they are in thier 2nd camaro. Always liked the clean black look, and I've polished them once, look like new still. Been through hell and back, never fallen off.
side markers and turn signals up front :
I've used VHT nightshade on both camaros. I've taken the lenses completely out, cleaned well and prepped good etc, and 6 ot 7 light coats looks great . When lit they look great, not lit they blend in fantastic (car is black tho)
Headlights :
my car is no show car, she's pretty decent for 19 years old, but not perfect. So I decided to risk the eBay 129 dollar halo headlights. And for my car, they look good. Fitment, enh, ok. Black.car again helps gaps not stand out. So on this one I'd say if your car is tight and nice, spring for the high dollar deals. Hope this helped some.
