A definitive yes, definitely remove them. Looks 100x better without them.

I would search the classifieds for them here on the forum to see if anyone has sold them in the past and for what price and go from there!

If you are going to go with other chrome parts like rims, license plate and other parts I say leave them.

Well, I quess I like them because I have the chrome wheels and such..

But I tell ya, removing the third brake light chrome can leave a dull finish where the chrome was attached on the lens. That part of the set is not held on by screws. It is glued on.

I had corn-on-the-cob a few nights ago...the next morning I went to take a dump and noticed yellow corn nibblets mixed throughout my fecal matter. It still looked better than these tail lights.

So Friggin cheesy.

Tasteful Chrome wheels, yes.

SOME chrome in the engine bay.. sure.

BUT, chrome body accessories like those tail-light bezels...PUKE! Always hated when people cheese out their vettes.
