Don't do it. Wouldn't look right. Check out the customized c5 rear that has a c6 theme to it. Uses the c6 diffuser but keeps the c5 twilight's as the c6 ones would look as awful on a c5 as they do on the c6.
Its made by creations I think?

I believe the dimensions will be off, width, height etc.
What might be better is to install the tail lights of the C6 and get the looks from them -
i do believe that has been done already!
Thanks,Matt

The front lip was custom made by Mark. The side skirts are our ZR skirts and they are available in fiberglass as well.

If you want to freshen the look up, then do it, there are plenty of C5 mods out there just for that, but to make the rear of a C5 look like a C6 I don't understand, same as adding a C6 nose to a C5. If you want to look like a C6 go set a C6.
