I have yet to buy plastidip and mess around with the stock lights and surrounding area. If the actual C7 tail light swap was done with proper body work it may just look good! I'm NOT doing the actual swap, but maybe someone will. It was just an idea I came up with....

However IMO that's the furthest i'll take it.

I like this, subtle black around housings, what happens whe you wax? It`s flat, not glossy, correct?
C7 taillights belong on a C7
