Well put. Some people are just instigators and trying to stir things up instead of just trying to help a forum member. I lurked around this forum for a while and read a lot of very good helpful and informative posts. I've even seen a form of brotherhood here but still there are some that are just immature.

Let me put it to you this way, I installed some black ones on my Torch Red vert and they didn't last long enough to take a picture, or even get out of the garage. My wife came out to the garage, took one look, and said, "Those look like crap!" I had to agree with her, so I canned them.............

Go with LED's or Euro tail lights. I went with euros (Red&White)to break up some of the red going on with the car being magnetic red. I just prefered this over the louvers. Having yellow turn signals looks nice also IMO. Good luck with your choice.

Put em on, if YOU don't like em, take em off. Try red, try black simple as that.
I personally don't like exterior mods on a Vette, my personal opinion is that it cheapens the look of the car with a bunch of aftermarket cr@p on a Vette....
It is my opinion that a Corvette is a like beautiful woman who doesn't need any "make up" to make her look better. Mustangs and Ricer's on the other hand NEED as much make-up as you can afford to put on them!
