Those look terrible, the early 4th gen lamps look good down, not really so much when their up. The LS1 lamps look good both up and down

Nah not liking the product and price. I like the original look on the TA. I'd spend 1100 on something else.

I think it looks more C6. I would never pay 1100. I just thought they look really nice and gives the LT1 TA a really nice updated look.

right now i am posting from my ps3, just to let you know. now, about these headlights. i think what would be cool is if the clear part was blacked out or smoked or something. i just dont like looking at the plastic cover things, then again i am not a fan of blackouts on camaro fronts either.

I would have to see it up close before I dropped the decision, but after a moment of looking at it, I actually kind of like it, but its not for every bird.

Not digging it. If it was like $300, I MIGHT consider it, but definately not for $1100.

It makes the car look too much like a wannabe Lambo.

I absolutely hate the flip up lights on my car, but I can't really say that I'd do that swap. Maybe if there was a colored cover to go over them in the day time.

just rememebr the only reason it looks half decent (to those that it does) is because the inside of the is all black and thats a black car.... put those on any other color and they dont match like that anymore

believe me... if these look good... they will only look good on the black car.
