Default Tail light suggestions...
I was thinking about buying these tail lights:

What do you think? I have a 96 red z28 so I figured the black and red contrast would look good...

they are pretty damn ugly, but i could see an application where they might look good tho.
maybe if the car was the same color and in show car condition and have some decent, mesh style, new zr1ish wheels.

but still, jdm?

93-96 stockers look best IMHO. The 97+ with the yellow flasher part come in second and the rest follow....

Default Unique
Something to ponder:

I've seen the European Camaro taillights and IMHO, those are pretty nice / unique / cool - one guy in GMHTP had them in the last year or so...

Just a thought.
